This etching belongs to The Large Miseries of War (Les Grandes Misères de la guerre), the 1633 series by the French printmaker Jacques Callot. Drawing on the devastation he witnessed when armies overran his native Lorraine during the Thirty Years' War, Callot laid out the whole grim cycle of soldiering — recruitment, plunder, punishment and ruin — in eighteen unflinching plates often called the first true anti-war art.

It has completely changed how the entryway feels. The detail in The Large Miseries of War holds up with my face inches away.
It has completely changed how the dining room feels. The shading in The Large Miseries of War has a depth I never noticed in books. It has become the thing I point to when people compliment the house. Don't think twice, just order it.
I bought this to fill an awkward corner and it did much more than that. My daughter recognized The Large Miseries of War from her art class and was thrilled.
This filled a gap and did not do much more than that…
Delivery was quick and the tracking actually updated. The size is exactly what the description said it would be. It was a good decision.
