EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a flag bearer from the canton of Valais, Switzerland, dating back to approximately 1819. The color engraving, published in 1943 by Editions Fraumunster in Zurich, beautifully captures the essence of this historical figure. Standing tall and proud, the flag bearer holds a banner adorned with intricate heraldry symbols that represent the rich history and traditions of Valais. The vibrant colors used in this engraving bring life to the uniform worn by the soldier. Every detail is meticulously depicted, showcasing both the craftsmanship of the artist and the attention to detail paid by those who created these uniforms centuries ago. This vertical composition allows us to fully appreciate every aspect of this remarkable piece. Although little is known about this specific flag bearer or their significance within Swiss history, it serves as a poignant reminder of Switzerland's diverse cultural heritage and its long-standing tradition as an independent nation. This print now resides in a private collection under Santiago Ortega's care. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back in time to witness an important moment frozen forever through artistry and skillful engraving techniques. It serves as a testament to our shared human history and reminds us of how far we have come while honoring those who came before us.
