EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the dramatic escape of Gustave I Vasa, the future king of Sweden, from Denmark in 1519. Disguised as a peasant and specifically as a bullocky, Gustav Eriksson (Vasa) cunningly evades capture in Kalo, Denmark. The pen drawing is taken from "Historische Memorabilian des In-und Auslandes" (Historical Memories) by Anton Ziegler in 1840 and is part of a private collection. The image transports us back to a time filled with intrigue and danger as Gustave I Vasa navigates his way through enemy territory. With his face hidden beneath the humble attire of a bullocky, he blends seamlessly into the rural landscape, ensuring his anonymity while plotting his escape. The artist's attention to detail brings this historical event to life. From the meticulous rendering of Gustav's disguise to the atmospheric depiction of Kalo's streets bustling with unaware locals, every element contributes to an immersive experience for viewers. As we gaze upon this remarkable print captured by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded not only of Gustave I Vasa's audacity but also his determination to reclaim his rightful place on Sweden's throne. This image serves as both a testament to human resilience and an enduring symbol of freedom against all odds.
