EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment during the Fifth Italian War (1515-1516). In 1516, at the camp retreated from the Bicocca in front of Milan, Italy, tensions rose as the Swiss mercenaries demanded payment or battle. Odet de Foix, Viscount de Lautrec and marechal of France (1485-1528), found himself unable to meet their demands. The illustration, created by Albert Robida in 1909, beautifully depicts this historical event. The artist's attention to detail transports us back in time as we witness the intensity and uncertainty on the faces of both Swiss and French soldiers. The composition highlights the vastness of the camp with its tents stretching into the distance. Robida's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth to this scene while emphasizing key elements such as armor-clad soldiers and banners fluttering in the wind. Through his artistry, he manages to capture not only a specific moment but also conveys a sense of urgency and impending conflict. This particular print is part of a private collection that showcases important moments from history. It serves as a reminder of how political disputes often led to military confrontations during this period. As viewers engage with this image, they are transported back in time to witness firsthand one small fragment of an intricate web woven throughout European history.
