Intro
110 m long circular painting from 1881 about the internment of 87,000 French soldiers in Switzerland in 1871. A masterpiece of painting, architecture and narrative art with a timeless message of peace.
The 110 x 12 meter circular painting was created in 1881 by the Geneva painter and Red Cross volunteer Edouard Castres with the support of other artists, including Ferdinand Hodler. It depicts the internment of 87,000 French soldiers who find refuge in Switzerland at the end of the Franco-Prussian War in 1871. The willingness of the population, the Red Cross and the army to help makes this European cultural monument a moving testimony to humanity, solidarity and commitment to peace. The analog illusion medium casts a spell over visitors - a masterpiece of painting, architecture and narrative art whose message of peace could not be more topical.
