EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 12th century, capturing a pivotal moment in history. The image depicts Saladin, the renowned Sultan of Egypt and Syria, making a daring escape on a swift dromedary. Clad in royal armor and wielding his sword with determination, Saladin emerges as an iconic hero of the Crusades. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this powerful scene, emphasizing the gravity of warfare during that era. The intricate engravings beautifully capture every detail of Saladin's regal attire and noble steed. It is evident that this print was crafted with great care by Paolo Priolo for Barbara Hutton's book "Heroes of the Crusades". As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded of Saladin's unwavering leadership against the Crusaders' invasion. His military prowess and strategic brilliance earned him respect even from his adversaries. This image serves as a testament to his heroism and courage. Through this print, we witness not only an extraordinary man but also gain insight into life during the 19th century Victorian era when it was created. It stands as a reminder of our shared human history and how individuals like Saladin shaped our world through their bravery.
