EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print from the Signaringen Museum showcases a captivating carpet that illustrates key events from the French epic poem "William of Orleans" by Godfried of Bouillon. The poem, penned in the late 13th century, tells the story of William, a nobleman from the House of Champagne who became Duke of Aquitaine and later King of Thebes. The intricately designed carpet, drawn by Dr. Jakob Heinrich Hefner-Alteneck and lithographed by CR, was published by Heinrich Keller in 1883 as part of the comprehensive collection "Hefner-Altenecks Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the early Middle Ages to the end of the 18th Century." Hefner-Alteneck, a renowned German archeologist, art historian, and illustrator, served as the director of the Bavarian National Museum from 1868 until 1886. The carpet's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the epic poem to life, depicting various scenes from William's adventures. The rich tapestry of medieval fashion, history, and mythology is on full display, with figures dressed in the costumes of the time adorning the scenes. The meticulous attention to detail in the illustration and the high-quality lithography make this print a valuable historical artifact and a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the late Middle Ages. This print is not only a beautiful work of art but also an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts of medieval history and literature. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the grandeur and intrigue of the medieval world as depicted in one of its most beloved epics.
