EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the pivotal moment in the First Crusade's siege of Antioch in 1095, as the Crusader forces, led by Bohemund of Taranto and Peter the Hermit, triumphantly celebrate their victory over the Turkish army. The city of Antioch, an important strategic stronghold in the Eastern Mediterranean, had been under Turkish rule for over a century. The Crusaders, a diverse group of European knights and peasants, had been on a mission to reclaim the Holy Land from Muslim rule since 1096. The siege of Antioch, which lasted from November 1097 to June 1098, was a turning point in the Crusaders' campaign. Despite initial setbacks and heavy losses, the Crusaders persisted, and their determination paid off when they managed to breach the city walls on June 3, 1098. The defeated Turkish forces retreated, leaving Antioch in Crusader hands. This print, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the intense emotions and jubilation that must have filled the air as the Crusaders celebrated their hard-won victory. The image shows a group of Crusaders, dressed in armor and carrying banners, gathered around a standard bearing the cross of the Crusade. Their faces are filled with joy and relief, while in the background, the city of Antioch can be seen in ruins, a testament to the fierce battle that had taken place. The First Crusade's victory at Antioch marked the beginning of the Crusaders' successful campaign to reclaim the Holy Land, which culminated in the capture of Jerusalem in 1099. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the significant role the Crusades played in European history and the enduring impact of religious and political conflicts on the Mediterranean world.
