EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a powerful allegory of victory and triumph. In the center, we see Victoria, also known as Pallas, surrounded by prisoners and trophies of defeated enemies. The image symbolizes Emperor Charles V's triumphant victory over the Turks. Victoria stands tall and majestic, her hands dripping with blood - a stark reminder of the fierce battles fought to achieve this conquest. This representation holds great historical significance as it was depicted on one of the panels adorning the Genoese triumphal arch during Philip II's entry into Antwerp in 1549. Beneath this striking image lies a six-line text in Latin that further emphasizes the theme of victory. It reads "Victoria, Vittoria, Vittoria navale, Vittoria degl antichi" highlighting different aspects of triumph and celebrating past victories. The print also mentions notable figures such as Charles V of Habsburg (the German Emperor and King of Spain), Philip II (King of Spain), and Frans Floris (I) who is associated with this artwork. Printed on paper using etching techniques, this piece measures 317 mm in height and 438 mm in width. Its intricate details capture both the grandeur and brutality inherent in moments of conquest. This photograph offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon history while appreciating its artistic representation.
