EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Ere the assassin could strike, the Nubian caught his uplifted arm" we are transported to a scene of intense action and bravery. The color lithograph, created by Simon Harmon Vedder in 1866-1937, captures a moment of high tension during the Crusades. Set against the backdrop of a tent in the Holy Land, we witness an impending attack on an unsuspecting figure. Just as the assassin's arm is raised to strike, a courageous Nubian guard intervenes with lightning speed. His swift reflexes and unwavering determination are evident as he catches the assailant's uplifted arm. The image exudes strength and valor through its depiction of armor-clad warriors and their intricate costumes. It serves as a reminder of the dangers faced by those who fought for their beliefs during this tumultuous period in history. Vedder's artwork was originally published in The Talisman by T C & E C Jack in the 1920s, adding historical context to this dramatic portrayal. This particular print is part of a private collection but remains accessible due to its status being out of copyright. As we gaze upon this striking composition from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of Richard I's crusade but also of humanity's capacity for heroism when faced with adversity.
