EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the legendary moment of Roland, Count of Mans, Sire de Blaives, in the heat of battle against the Saracens at Roncevaux Pass during the 9th century. Born to Duke Milo of Aiglant, Roland was a valiant warrior in the service of Charlemagne, the Frankish king and emperor. The semi-legendary tale of Roland's heroism and tragic demise is deeply rooted in European history and folklore. Roland, renowned for his bravery and unwavering loyalty, was tasked with guarding the rearguard of Charlemagne's army as they returned from their successful campaign in Spain. As the Saracens launched a surprise attack, Roland and his loyal companion Oliver sounded their horns, alerting the main army. Despite being vastly outnumbered, Roland and his men fought fiercely, holding off the enemy for hours. However, Roland's eventual defeat was a turning point in the battle. Wounded and exhausted, he was approached by the Saracen champion, Haroun al Raschid, who challenged him to single combat. Roland, though weakened, refused to yield, and in a final act of defiance, he struck down Haroun before succumbing to his injuries. This poignant moment in history is immortalized in this print, which showcases Roland's unwavering courage and determination in the face of overwhelming odds. The image transports us back to a time of chivalry, honor, and heroism, offering a glimpse into the epic tales of Charlemagne's legendary warriors.
