EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning coloured engraving captures the essence of the Old Swiss Confederacy in 1315, a pivotal moment in Swiss history. The map depicts the original three cantons that formed this confederation, showcasing the unity and strength of these regions during a time of political turmoil.
Created by the Swiss School in the 19th century, this engraving is a testament to Switzerland's rich heritage and historical significance. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life Professor W Rosier's depiction from "Histoire de la Suisse," published by Librairie Payot et Cie in Lausanne in 1911.
The image transports us back to the late Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into Europe's medieval period and highlighting Switzerland's role as an influential player on the continent. It serves as a reminder of the country's resilience and determination to maintain its independence amidst external pressures.
As we admire this piece of artistry, we are reminded of Switzerland's enduring legacy as a symbol of freedom, democracy, and neutrality. The Old Swiss Confederacy may have been established centuries ago, but its impact continues to resonate today. This engraving is not just a visual representation; it is a reflection of Switzerland's unwavering spirit throughout history.
