Image description

Swiss soldiers of the Brigade Frey, Division II, plunder the 'Kloesterli' in Malters on 24 November 1847 (pen drawing by Carl-Alexander Steinhaeuslein, lithograph by F. Schulthess). The Sonderbundskrieg 1847 is regarded as a relatively bloodless and knightly war, as the 27-day military campaign claimed 'only' about 100 dead. The fact that there were also dark sides and that soldiers often raged for no reason has largely disappeared from the historical consciousness. (Image for SDA background bsd023) (KEYSTONE)
