This powerful engraving captures the chaotic and devastating scene of the Sac de Rome on 6 May 1527, a military event carried out by Spanish and Italian troops, as well as lansquenets in the service of Emperor Charles V. Commissioned by the connetable Charles de Bourbon, this historical moment marked a dark chapter in Rome's history.
The image depicts the city under siege, with buildings ablaze and soldiers pillaging through the streets. The brutality and violence of war are evident in every detail, from terrified civilians fleeing for safety to armed men looting precious treasures.
The artist Hippolite Magen skillfully captures the chaos and destruction of this event, conveying a sense of horror and despair. The intricate details in the engraving bring to life the intensity of battle and capture the raw emotions of both conquerors and conquered.

This engraving is not just a work of art but also a historical document that immortalizes one of Rome's darkest moments. It stands as a testament to human folly and serves as a warning against repeating past mistakes.
