EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from the 13th century, beautifully recreated in the 19th century. Based on an original manuscript illustration found in Psautier Latin (ms. no 175) at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, this image showcases a knight and a maiden immersed in their own world of tranquility. The knight sits with his legs crossed, exuding an air of relaxation and ease. His armor gleams under the sunlight, while his trusty steed stands proudly beside him. The maiden, adorned with long flowing hair, sits gracefully next to him, her gaze fixed on something beyond our sight. A banner flutters gently behind them, symbolizing their allegiance to a cause or perhaps representing their shared journey. Their connection is palpable as they sit side by side; it is evident that they are more than mere acquaintances but rather companions who have embarked on this adventure together. This enchanting engraving transports us back to an era where chivalry thrived and romance blossomed amidst turbulent times. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and timelessness to the image, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by Paul Lacroix's skilled hand. As we gaze upon this print from Heritage Images' collection, we can't help but be drawn into the world of knights and maidens - a world filled with bravery, love, and endless possibilities for those willing to embark on daring quests.
