EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 13th century, immersing us in a scene of military might and strategic logistics. The image showcases a dynamic composition featuring cavalry and foot soldiers alongside a horse-drawn wagon laden with arms and supplies. Painted by Armand Jean Heins in 1886, this colour lithograph captures the essence of medieval warfare. The soldiers are depicted in intricate chainmail armor, their spears and pikes held firmly as they march through a fortified town. The walled gatehouse stands tall behind them, symbolizing the strength and protection provided by such structures during this era. The horses exude power and grace as they pull the heavily loaded wagon, emphasizing the importance of efficient transportation for successful military campaigns. This artwork is part of Cortege Historique des Moyens de Transport (Historical Procession of Means of Transportation), an illustrative series that chronicles various modes of transport throughout history. It offers viewers a glimpse into how armies moved weapons and provisions during medieval times. As we admire this historical masterpiece from our private collection, it serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with warfare and its evolution over centuries. Through art like this, we can appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such detailed imagery and gain insights into past civilizations' strategies for survival on the battlefield.
