EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in Swiss history - the Rutlischwur, or Rutli's oath, which marked the formation of the Old Swiss Confederacy in 1307. The scene depicted on this postcard from Switzerland circa 1914 shows a group of individuals gathered together, united in their commitment to create a new political alliance.
The significance of this event cannot be overstated, as it laid the foundation for Switzerland as we know it today. The spirit of unity and cooperation that was present at the Rutlischwur continues to define Swiss identity and values centuries later.
The image itself is striking, with a rainbow arching over the gathering symbolizing hope and promise for the future. It serves as a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from coming together in pursuit of a common goal.
As we reflect on this historical moment captured in time, we are reminded of the importance of standing together in times of challenge and uncertainty. The legacy of the Rutlischwur lives on through generations, inspiring us to uphold principles of democracy, freedom, and unity.
This print is not just a piece of art; it is a testament to the enduring power of history and its ability to shape our collective identity.
