The Arrest of the Duke de Boufflers, Marshal of France, on 5 September 1695
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and historically significant print by Everard Van Dyckvelt, depicting a pivotal moment during the Nine Years War in the Spanish Netherlands (present-day Wallonia, Belgium). The image captures the arrest of the French Marshal, Duke de Boufflers, by twelve English Lifeguards following the unsuccessful Siege of Namur (2 July to 4 September 1695). The Duke de Boufflers, a prominent French military leader, had been attempting to relieve the besieged city of Namur, but was ultimately unsuccessful. After the failure of the relief effort, the Duke was arrested by English forces, marking a significant victory for the Allied forces during the Nine Years War. The print, created in the 17th century, showcases the Duke de Boufflers being arrested on horseback, surrounded by the twelve English Lifeguards. The Duke is shown wearing his military regalia, including a plumed helmet and a sword at his side, while the Lifeguards brandish their swords and grip their reins firmly. The horses, too, display a sense of tension and readiness. However, it is important to note that there is some debate regarding who actually arrested the Duke de Boufflers. While some sources attribute the arrest to Everard Van Dyckvelt and the English Lifeguards, others claim it was Brigadier L Estang or Lestang who was responsible. Despite this, the print remains an intriguing and visually striking representation of a pivotal moment in the Nine Years War. Overall, "The Arrest of the Duke de Boufflers, Marshal of France, on 5 September 1695" is a captivating and historically significant print that provides a glimpse into the military tactics and tensions of the 17th century. The image continues to fascinate historians and art enthusiasts alike, offering a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in European history.
