EDITORS COMMENTS
Capture of Constantinople by the Croises, Painting by Eugene Delacroix (1798-1863), depicts the pivotal historical event that took place on 12 April 1204 during the 4th Crusade. This reduced version and variant of the original painting from the Salon of 1841 was commissioned by Louis Philippe for the historical galleries of Versailles. In this artwork, Delacroix masterfully captures the intensity and chaos of battle as Constantinople is seized by crusaders. The Turkish army fiercely defends their city against an onslaught of crusaders, creating a dramatic clash between East and West. The artist's use of vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes brings life to every figure on the battlefield. This painting not only showcases a significant moment in history but also highlights Delacroix's skill in capturing emotion through his art. Each soldier's face reflects determination, fear, or anguish as they engage in combat. Through this piece, viewers are transported back to a time when religious fervor drove men to fight for their beliefs. The medium age setting adds another layer of authenticity to this historical masterpiece. It serves as a reminder that conflicts like these shaped our world today and influenced cultural exchanges between different civilizations. Kim Young Tae has expertly captured this iconic artwork with precision and detail, preserving its essence for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded once again of humanity's complex history filled with triumphs and tragedies.
