EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "French soldiers of the 13th century" takes us back in time to witness the valiant warriors who fought during this tumultuous era. Created by Raphael Jacquemin in the 19th century, it draws inspiration from stained glass windows and miniatures of that period. The print showcases a range of military figures, each with their own distinctive armor and weaponry. From a soldier hailing from Strasbourg in 1200-1215 to King St Louis leading his troops into battle in 1249, we are presented with an array of historical characters. The attention to detail is remarkable; every helmet, sword, and flag is intricately depicted. As we delve deeper into this artwork's narrative, we catch glimpses of significant events such as the Seventh Crusade. These brave crusaders donned their armor and took up arms against formidable foes on foreign lands. Through this engraving, we gain insight into not only the military aspect but also the social fabric of medieval France. It offers a glimpse into the clothing styles and iconography prevalent during that time. Overall, this piece serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical document. It transports us back centuries ago when knights rode horses onto battlefields adorned with shields and spears clashing against one another for honor and glory under the leadership of kings like Louis IX.
