EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ferdinand Hodler's masterpiece, "Battle of Nafels" created between 1896 and 1897. The artwork, rendered in tempera on paper, measures an impressive 52.3 x 98.3 cm and bears the artist's signature in the lower right corner: F. Hodler. Hodler, a renowned Swiss painter born in Bern in 1853 and passing away in Geneva in 1918, was known for his distinctive style that bridged symbolism and expressionism. In this particular piece, he captures the intensity and chaos of a historic battle with remarkable precision. The Battle of Nafels took place during the Swabian War (1499) when Swiss forces valiantly defended their homeland against Habsburg invaders near Näfels, Switzerland. Through his brushstrokes, Hodler immortalizes this pivotal moment by depicting soldiers engaged in fierce combat amidst a tumultuous landscape. The composition exudes energy as vibrant colors clash against each other while dynamic lines convey movement and tension. With meticulous attention to detail, Hodler brings life to every figure on the battlefield – from determined warriors to fallen comrades – evoking both heroism and tragedy simultaneously. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back to that fateful day over a century ago when history unfolded before our eyes through Ferdinand Hodler's masterful interpretation of The Battle of Nafels.
