The Battle of Ravenna - A Glimpse into the Fierce Italian Wars
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases an exquisite engraving depicting "The Battle of Ravenna" by an anonymous Italian artist from the 16th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, immortalizes a pivotal moment in history during the War of the League of Cambrai. On April 11,1512, amidst the picturesque landscapes near Ravenna, Italy, two mighty armies clashed with ferocity and determination. The Franco-Ferrarese forces confronted their Spanish-Papal adversaries in a battle that would shape the course of European politics. Tragically, this conflict witnessed the untimely demise of Gaston de Foix-Nemours (1489-1512), Duke of Nemours and commander-in-chief for the French army. His death on these blood-soaked grounds forever etched his name into history books as a valiant leader who fell defending his cause. The engraving vividly captures every aspect of this intense confrontation - from armored troops wielding lances and spears to fluttering flags and banners representing different factions involved in this complex struggle for power. Cannon fire illuminates the scene while soldiers fight relentlessly for control over territories within Duchy Ferrara. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to an era where conflicts shaped nations and alliances were forged or shattered. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, art has always been there
