EDITORS COMMENTS
This 15th century miniature depicts a pivotal moment in the Seventh Crusade, specifically the siege of Damietta on June 7, 1249. The city, located in Egypt, is under attack by the Capetian army led by King Louis IX of France. The image showcases the determination and bravery of the Crusaders as they prepare to storm the city, with crossbowmen and lancers readying their weapons at the forefront. The Ayyubid defenders, however, appear to be caught off guard, with some attempting to defend their city from the boats in the harbor. The Crusaders, bearing the Christian cross, advanced with unwavering resolve, leading to the eventual capture of Damietta. This significant conquest marked a rare success for the Crusaders during the Middle Ages, highlighting the intense battles and clashes between the Christian and Muslim forces during this period. The miniature, now housed at Château de Chantilly in France, is a testament to the rich history and enduring legacy of the Crusades.
