EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary tale of Guillaume Tell, also known as William Tell or Wilhelm Tell, a symbol of Swiss independence in the 14th century. The unknown artist beautifully portrays the dramatic moment when Guillaume is condemned by Hermann Gessler to shoot an arrow through an apple placed on his son's head. The composition exudes tension and danger, with Guillaume standing tall and determined while his young son bravely holds still. The engraving skillfully conveys the emotions running through their minds - fear, bravery, and unwavering patriotism. It is a powerful representation of a father's love for his country and family. The image not only showcases this iconic scene but also provides insights into various aspects of that era. From military attire to botanical details like apples, it offers glimpses into both historical events and natural history. This medium-age masterpiece serves as a reminder of heroism during challenging times. Giancarlo Costa has expertly captured this timeless artwork in stunning detail, allowing us to appreciate its significance even today. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom centuries ago.
