EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Relief of Vienna, 1529" by Dirck Volckertsz Coornhert captures a pivotal moment in history. The image showcases Emperor Charles V and his brother Ferdinand on horseback leading their army as they chase the Turkish siege troops away from Vienna. In 1529, the city of Vienna was under attack by Sultan Suleiman's forces, who sought to conquer it. However, Emperor Charles V and his loyal army valiantly defended the city against this relentless assault. This print immortalizes their heroic efforts and ultimate victory. The scene depicted is filled with action and intensity. The wind blows fiercely as the emperor's horse gallops forward, symbolizing their determination to protect their people and preserve their homeland. Meanwhile, in the background, we witness the Turkish troops retreating in defeat. Dirck Volckertsz Coornhert skillfully captures this historic event with intricate details that bring life to every element of the composition. From the expressions on each soldier's face to the Latin inscriptions commemorating past victories adorning the print's borders – every aspect contributes to its overall impact. Quint Lox has masterfully curated this piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic value. It serves as a reminder of humanity's resilience in times of adversity and our ability to overcome even seemingly insurmountable challenges.
