EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the historic moment of the First Crusade: Taking of Jerusalem by the Crusaders on 15 July 1099. Painted by Emile Signol in 1847, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 324x557 cm and is housed in the Musee et Domaine National de Versailles et de Trianon in Versailles, France. In this scene, we witness Godfrey of Bouillon, also known as Godefroi de Bouillon, expressing his gratitude to God after the successful capture of Jerusalem. Standing before him is Peter the Hermit, a prominent figure who played a crucial role in inciting religious fervor among Christians for the crusade. The painting showcases not only the military triumph but also highlights themes of faith and devotion. The artist's attention to detail is evident through intricate depictions of knights adorned in their distinctive attire and armor. It transports us back to a time when religion was intertwined with warfare and serves as a testament to both European history and Christian heritage. This image offers viewers a glimpse into one of history's most significant events – an event that shaped medieval Europe and left an indelible mark on global politics. As we admire this artwork today, it reminds us of our shared past while urging us to reflect upon its complexities and consequences for future generations.
