EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Gravensteen, also known as the Counts of Flanders watercastle, located in Ghent, Belgium. Dating back to the 12th century, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to military technology and fortifications of its time. With its crenelated walls and fortified structure, Gravensteen exudes strength and protection. It served as a defensive stronghold during numerous battles and conflicts throughout Belgian history. This continental European castle played a crucial role in safeguarding the city of Ghent. The image captures the essence of this historic site with its horizontal composition and vibrant colors. While no people are present in the frame, one can imagine groups of men defending their beloved fortress against potential invaders. Illustrating Belgian culture at its finest, Gravensteen is not just an illustration from history books but a living piece of heritage that continues to awe visitors today. Its imposing presence reminds us of our ancestors' ingenuity in constructing such formidable structures for both defense and prestige. This print by Dorling Kindersley offers a glimpse into an era when fortresses like Gravensteen were essential for survival. It serves as a reminder of our rich past while celebrating the enduring beauty and significance of historical landmarks like this iconic Belgian castle.
