Created by the French School in the 19th century, this artwork can be found at the Musee Municipal in Cambrai, France. The detailed illustration depicts a legendary tale of Martin, a blacksmith of Moorish descent who valiantly defended the city of Cambrai using only his mighty iron hammer in 1370. The scene unfolds with Martin standing proudly atop a clocktower, overlooking the cityscape. With his heavy iron hammer raised high above his head, he symbolizes strength and determination. The intricate details bring to life every aspect of this historical legend - from the bellringer diligently ringing bells within a cupola to commemorate Martin's heroic act, to the majestic bell itself that echoes throughout Cambrai.
