EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Richard went away to Palestine, 1190" takes us back in time to the medieval era. Created by As Forrest, it beautifully captures King Richard I, famously known as Richard the Lionheart, during his crusade in Palestine. The image is an illustration from the book "Our Island Story" written by H E Marshall and published by T C & E C Jack Ltd in 1905. The artist's attention to detail is evident as we see King Richard astride his majestic horse, clad in a suit of armor that symbolizes strength and power. His flag flutters proudly behind him, representing England and Christianity. This portrayal reflects the biased and pro-British perspective prevalent at that time. The photograph transports us to a significant moment in history when brave soldiers like King Richard fought valiantly for their beliefs during the Crusades. It serves as a reminder of Britain's involvement and influence during this tumultuous period. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from the early 20th century, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by figures such as King Richard I. Their actions continue to shape our understanding of medieval times and inspire fascination with knights, chivalry, and epic battles fought on horseback.
