This engraving depicts a poignant moment in history as St Elizabeth of Hungary bids farewell to her beloved husband, Louis IV, Landgrave of Thuringia. The year is 1227, and Louis is about to embark on the perilous journey to join the Sixth Crusade. As they stand together, their faces filled with love and devotion, one can sense the deep bond that exists between them. In this historical snapshot from the Middle Ages, we witness a scene of royalty intertwined with religious fervor. St Elizabeth's faith shines through as she embraces her husband tightly before his departure. Her unwavering support for his mission reflects both her commitment to Christianity and her loyalty as a wife. The artist Moritz Ludwig von Schwind masterfully captures the emotions of this parting moment. The intricate details in their clothing and expressions transport us back in time to an era where such departures were common but never easy. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who lived during medieval times. It serves as a testament not only to their love but also to their unwavering dedication towards causes greater than themselves. Overall, this engraving offers us a glimpse into history—a snapshot frozen in time that encapsulates themes of love, religion, duty, and sacrifice all within its delicate lines and contours.
