EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Italian history - the signing of the second Lombard League on 2/03/1226. In an effort to combat Emperor Frederick II's influence, representatives from various cities in northern Italy gathered at the church of San Zenone a Mosio near Mantua. The renewal of this league aimed to counter the emperor's attempts to assert control over the region. Illustrated by Tancredi Scarpelli, renowned for his historical depictions, this image transports us back to that pivotal day. The composition exudes solemnity and determination as we witness these representatives coming together with a shared purpose. Their expressions reveal both resolve and hope for a united front against their common adversary. The details captured by Scarpelli highlight not only the historical significance but also provide insight into the architectural beauty of San Zenone a Mosio. The grandeur of its interior serves as a backdrop for this crucial event, emphasizing its importance within Italian society. Preserved within Paolo Giudici's "Storia d'Italia" this illustration offers us a glimpse into an era marked by political strife and regional alliances. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people were willing to set aside differences and join forces when faced with threats to their freedom. As we contemplate this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of our collective ability to overcome challenges through unity and resilience - lessons that resonate just as strongly today as they did during those tumultuous times in medieval Italy.
