EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable manuscript known as the "Rules of conduct for crusader knights" from the 14th century. The vellum manuscript, originating from France and currently housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, offers an intriguing glimpse into the chivalric world of medieval times. The image captures various elements that were crucial to crusading knights during their journeys. A sword lies prominently at the center, symbolizing their readiness for battle and defense. In the background, ships with beautifully adorned sails evoke images of epic voyages across treacherous seas towards distant lands. Mounted on horseback, these valiant knights are depicted preparing for departure. Their banners flutter proudly in the wind as they load provisions onto boats nearby. This scene represents not only physical preparation but also adherence to a code of conduct that governed their actions throughout their crusades. The illuminated text within this manuscript serves as a guidebook for these noble warriors, outlining principles such as honor, bravery, and loyalty. It is through such texts that generations have come to understand the ideals upheld by these courageous individuals who risked everything in service of their faith. This print provides us with a window into history - a testament to both human ambition and devotion. As we gaze upon it today, we can appreciate how these rules shaped one's behavior during those tumultuous times while marveling at the intricate details captured by Bridgeman Images' lens.
