The Pact of Grutli, 1 August 1291 - A Symbolic Union for Swiss Independence
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in Swiss history - the swearing of the oath of confederation by the Swiss Cantons of Schwyz, Uri, and Nidwalden. The image depicts a solemn ceremony taking place amidst the breathtaking natural beauty of Grutli meadow. Arms raised in unity and determination, these brave men symbolize the birth of Switzerland as an independent nation. In this historical event from the Middle Ages, we witness the formation of a powerful alliance that would shape Switzerland's destiny for centuries to come. With hands raised towards the heavens, these courageous individuals pledge their loyalty to one another and vow to defend their shared values and freedoms. The significance of this pact lies not only in its immediate impact but also in its lasting legacy. The Pact of Grutli laid down strong foundations for democracy and self-governance within Switzerland. It became a cornerstone upon which future generations built a prosperous nation known for its neutrality, stability, and respect for human rights. As we gaze at this remarkable lithograph by Jules Courvoisier from 1884-1936, we are transported back to that fateful day in 1291 when three cantons came together to forge an unbreakable bond. This image serves as a reminder that unity can overcome adversity and that even small nations have the power to shape their own destinies. Let us celebrate this historic moment
