EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intensity and chaos of the Battle of Fornovo, a significant event during the Italian Wars. Illustrated from Christopher Hare's book "Bayard: The Good Knight Without Fear and Without Reproach" this colour lithograph by Herbert Cole transports us back to 6th July 1495. The focal point of the image is Pierre Terrail LeVieux, better known as Chevalier de Bayard, a legendary figure in French military history. Clad in gleaming armor and holding his flag high, he embodies courage and chivalry amidst the raging battlefield. Surrounding him are knights on horseback, their flags fluttering in defiance against an ominous sky filled with dark clouds. As lightning streaks across the heavens above them, it symbolizes not only the ferocity of their clash but also serves as a metaphor for the stormy political climate that engulfed Italy at that time. This battle marked a confrontation between French and Italian forces vying for control over territories, each side fiercely fighting for supremacy. In this moment frozen in time, we witness soldiers engaged in combat - swords clashing, horses charging forward - all encapsulated within this single frame. It is an awe-inspiring depiction of bravery and determination amidst adversity. Through this print from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection, we are transported to an era where honor was paramount and battles were fought with unwavering resolve. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring spirit even in times
