Panoramic view of the Sack of Rome
This panoramic view of the 16th century attack by Charles de Bourbon, attributed to the Flemish artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder, depicts a horde of troops pouring through the city. The two swordsmen (foreground) about to hack away at their defenseless victims are symbolic of the rampaging brutality of the sack.
