EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and grey ink drawing, titled "Five Nude Soldiers Holding Poles, Two Wearing a Helmet, and Three Nude Women" is a remarkable piece of artwork from the Netherlandish School in the 16th century. Created in 1522, this masterpiece measures 28.9 x 21.2 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The composition features five soldiers standing proudly while holding poles, two of them adorned with helmets for protection. In contrast to their military presence, three nude women are depicted nearby, looking away with aversion or perhaps captured against their will. The artist skillfully captures the tension between these contrasting elements. The fine details of this old master drawing showcase the expertise of the Netherlandish School during this period. The use of brush and pen creates intricate lines that emphasize each figure's posture and expression. This intriguing artwork raises questions about power dynamics, gender roles, and societal norms prevalent during the time it was created. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into historical contexts while appreciating its artistic merits. Bridgeman Images has provided us with this print that allows us to admire every nuance of this exceptional work by an unknown artist from centuries ago.
