"Rückzug von Marignano" (Retreat from Marignano) is a significant painting by the renowned Swiss artist Ferdinand Hodler, created in 1894. Hodler, a leading figure in the Swiss Symbolist movement, is celebrated for his monumental compositions and distinctive style that often explored themes of existential struggle, human destiny, and the natural world. This particular work is a poignant representation of a historical event, the Battle of Marignano, which took place in 1515 near Milan, Italy. The battle was a crucial conflict during the Italian Wars, where the Swiss mercenaries faced the French forces led by King Francis I.

In "Rückzug von Marignano," Hodler captures the dramatic and somber moment of the Swiss troops' retreat. The painting is notable for its powerful emotional impact and its meticulous attention to detail. Hodler's use of color, composition, and form conveys the exhaustion, despair, and determination of the soldiers. The figures are arranged in a rhythmic pattern, emphasizing the collective experience of the retreat while also highlighting individual suffering and resilience.

Hodler's work is characterized by its symbolic and allegorical elements, and "Rückzug von Marignano" is no exception. The painting reflects Hodler's interest in the themes of heroism and tragedy, as well as his broader philosophical concerns with the human condition. The stark landscape and the expressive poses of the soldiers create a sense of timelessness, suggesting that the painting is not just a historical record but also a meditation on the universal themes of struggle and survival.

"Rückzug von Marignano" is housed in the Kunstmuseum Basel, where it continues to be a focal point for discussions on Swiss national identity, historical memory, and the role of art in interpreting and commemorating past events. Hodler's masterful technique and profound thematic exploration make this painting a cornerstone of his oeuvre and a significant work in the canon of Swiss art.
