EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts the historic moment of the Founding of the Old Swiss Confederacy by the Pact of Brunnen in 1315. Created by an anonymous European School artist in the 19th century, this artwork showcases a pivotal event in Swiss history. The scene is filled with symbolism and significance as it portrays the signing of the pact that led to the unification of various regions within Switzerland during medieval times. The flags proudly wave, representing different cantons coming together under one agreement. A crucifix stands prominently at the center, highlighting both religious and political aspects intertwined during this era. The print exudes a sense of nationalism and pride as it captures a crucial step towards Swiss independence and self-governance. It serves as a reminder of Switzerland's rich heritage and its determination to maintain unity despite regional differences. Published on a Liebig card, part of an educational series on Swiss history, this artwork aims to educate viewers about their country's past while also celebrating its achievements. The attention to detail and vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment, making it accessible for all who gaze upon it. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded that history shapes our present and future. This print immortalizes an important milestone in Switzerland's journey towards becoming what it is today – a prosperous nation known for its neutrality, democracy, and commitment to peace.
