EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the past, transporting us back to 1516. Created by Urs Graf in 1943, this drawing showcases men dressed as mercenaries walking past a wayside shrine. The slashed garments they wear add an intriguing element to their attire, reflecting the fashion of that era. Located in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland, this artwork is part of Bernhard Degenhart's book "Europaische Handzeichnungen" which celebrates five hundred years of European drawings. The detailed cross on the shrine signifies the strong influence of Christianity during that time. The image portrays a group of soldiers going about their profession amidst a religious setting. It offers a glimpse into the life and occupation of mercenaries during the Renaissance period. Their full-length attire consisting of breeches and tights reflects both practicality and style. Urs Graf's skillful depiction brings these historical figures to life, showcasing his talent as an artist from both the 16th century and 20th century perspectives. This monochrome drawing evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone but still fascinating to explore. As we admire this piece, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance – capturing moments from centuries ago when war and religion played prominent roles in shaping society.
