Synopsis
Excerpt from Sac de Rome: Ecrit en 1527
Des vignettes, confiées au talent de deux artistes distingués, ont été placées dans le corps de l'ouvrage, pour reposer l'attention du lecteur et délasser les yeux fatigués au Spectacle de tant de forfaits.
Le portrait de Clément VII est d' après Raphael; il a été tiré d'un tableau de Léon X, dans lequel Clément a été peint d' après nature, jeune encore et lorsqu'il n'était que Cardinal. Cette indication suffit pour justifier la ressemblance et le choix du portrait.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the tumultuous events of 1527 Rome, when an army led by Charles, Duke of Bourbon, descended upon the city, bringing with it a reign of terror and destruction. The author's detailed account draws heavily on eyewitness testimony, providing a vivid portrayal of the chaos and suffering endured by the citizens of Rome.

The author's insights into the motivations and actions of key figures, including Pope Clement VII and Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, unravel the complex web of factors that led to this pivotal event, which forever altered the course of European history.
