In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the era of the Crusades. The image depicts foot soldiers engaged in battle, as illustrated in "Ms Lat 1390 fol. 7v Foot Soldiers in the Crusades, from La Vie de Saint Aubin d'Angers". Created by an unknown French artist during the 11th century, this vellum manuscript now resides within the prestigious Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. The scene is filled with a sense of urgency and intensity. The hand of God seems to guide these brave warriors as they wield their spears with determination and valor. Their faces show both concentration and resolve, reflecting their unwavering commitment to their cause. Amidst the chaos of war, it is fascinating to observe that one soldier appears preoccupied with something entirely different - fishing! This unexpected detail adds a touch of whimsy to an otherwise serious composition. Perhaps it serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict and turmoil, life's simple pleasures can still bring joy. The soldiers are arranged in a phalanx formation, showcasing their unity and strength as they advance towards an unseen enemy. Each figure is meticulously rendered on delicate vellum using intricate brushwork techniques characteristic of medieval artistry. This extraordinary print captures not only historical significance but also artistic mastery. It invites us to reflect upon the courage and sacrifice displayed by those who fought during this tumultuous period while reminding us that even amidst strife, there can be moments of unexpected
