EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the legendary moment when Gilles de Chin, a brave knight from Mons, Belgium, slayed the Dragon of Mons in the year 1132. The Dragon, a fearsome beast that terrorized the town and its people, was said to breathe fire and destroy crops and livestock. Gilles, aided by his loyal dogs and an enigmatic Woman in White, confronted the Dragon in a heroic bid to save his community. The Dragon, with its scaly skin, sharp claws, and piercing eyes, looms large in the background, ready to unleash its fiery breath. Gilles, clad in armor and wielding a sword, stands defiantly in front of the beast, his dogs snarling and snapping at the Dragon's heels. The Woman in White, dressed in a flowing white gown and veil, stands beside Gilles, her face obscured by the shadows. Her presence is a mystery, with some folklore suggesting she was a divine intervention or a guardian angel, while others believe she was a sorceress or a witch. The scene is one of high drama and tension, with the fate of the town hanging in the balance. The courage and determination of Gilles, the loyalty of his dogs, and the enigmatic presence of the Woman in White, all combine to make this a powerful and iconic image from medieval folklore. The Dragon of Mons remains a beloved legend in Belgian history, and this print is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the human spirit.
