EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of Alof de Wignacourt, a French nobleman and the 54th Grand Master of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. The portrait, created in the early 17th century but published in 1908, showcases his commanding stature and distinguished features. Alof de Wignacourt stands tall, donning a suit of armor that reflects his role as a knight during a time marked by war and warfare. His bearded face exudes wisdom and strength, embodying the ideals of chivalry and nobility. The oval-shaped frame adds an air of elegance to this historical depiction. The unknown creator skillfully captured every detail - from the intricate engravings on his armor to the intensity in his eyes. This image transports us back to an era when knights like Alof de Wignacourt defended their country with honor. Originally featured in "L'Histoire des Chevaliers de Saint-Jean de Jerusalem" published in Paris in 1643, this particular print was later included in "La Revue De L'Art - Ancien et Moderne" volume XXIV from July-December 1908. As we gaze upon this portrait today, we are reminded not only of Alof de Wignacourt's individual legacy but also of the rich history surrounding knights such as him who dedicated their lives to protecting others under the banner of St. John's Order.
