EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the city of Valenciennes, France, on 24 March 1567. It captures a significant moment in history - the first battle of the revolt of the Gueux, marking the beginning of the War of Eighty Years or Revolt of the Netherlands (1568-1648). The engraving is an illustration from "History of the War of Flanders" by Flamianus Strada, published in Brussels in 1712. The image transports us to a tumultuous era filled with conflict and strife. We can almost feel the tension and hear echoes of battle as we gaze upon this historical scene. The unknown artist has masterfully depicted this pivotal event, showcasing both its grandeur and brutality. Valenciennes itself stands as a symbol for resistance against oppression. Its capture on that fateful day marked a turning point in Dutch history, igniting a flame that would burn for eighty long years. This print serves as a reminder not only of past struggles but also resilience and determination. Preserved within private collection, this photograph offers us an opportunity to connect with our shared heritage. It invites contemplation about how far we have come since those turbulent times while acknowledging that history continues to shape our present reality. Leonard de Selva's expert photography ensures every detail is captured faithfully, allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully into this historic tableau. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, let it serve as inspiration for future generations to value their own freedom and fight against injustice wherever it may arise.
