The Duke of Bourbon's Halt at La Riccia, on His March to the Assault on Rome, May 3, 1527,
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an oil on wood painting created by American artist Robert Walter Weir in the 1830s. This masterpiece captures a pivotal moment in history as the Duke of Bourbon, Charles III, halts during his march to the assault on Rome in 1527. The painting portrays the Duke, dressed in royal attire, seated on horseback against a scenic backdrop of rolling hills and a clear blue sky. Surrounded by a group of men on horseback, the Duke appears to be giving orders or discussing strategy with his warriors. The landscape, with its lush greenery and picturesque vistas, adds to the grandeur of the scene, highlighting the power and majesty of the Duke and his men. Charles III, Duke of Bourbon, was a prominent figure during the Italian Wars, a series of conflicts that took place from 1494 to 1559. He was a key ally of the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V, and played a significant role in the Battle of Pavia, which marked the end of the Italian Wars. The painting is a testament to Weir's exceptional artistic skills and his ability to capture the essence of history through his art. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details adds depth and dimension to the scene, making it a valuable addition to any art collection. Today, this painting is part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Overall, "The Duke of Bourbon's Halt at La Riccia, on His March to the Assault on Rome, May 3, 1527," is a stunning work of art that transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a moment in history that continues to resonate with us today.
