The Duke of Alba, recalled to Spain, leaving Brussels, 1573
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this coloured engraving by Franz Hogenbergh, we witness a significant moment in history as the formidable Duke of Alba bids farewell to Brussels. The year is 1573 and Fernando Alvarez de Toledo, renowned for his role as the Governor of Flanders, prepares to depart from the city he once ruled with an iron fist. The scene unfolds against a stunning Belgian landscape, where soldiers on horseback and an entourage accompany the distinguished duke. A grand carriage stands ready to carry him away while ships dotting the sea symbolize his impending return to Spanish shores. This portrait captures both power and melancholy in equal measure. The stoic expression on the duke's face hints at the weight of responsibility that rests upon his shoulders. As one of Spain's most esteemed generals and administrators, he leaves behind a legacy that will forever be intertwined with Flanders' tumultuous history. Hogenbergh masterfully conveys a sense of motion through intricate details: horses prancing restlessly, soldiers marching purposefully alongside their leader. It is a departure scene filled with anticipation and uncertainty. As we gaze upon this print from centuries past, we are reminded not only of historical events but also of human resilience amidst changing political landscapes. The Duke of Alba's departure marks another chapter in Europe's Renaissance era – an era defined by great men who shaped nations and left indelible imprints on our collective memory
