EDITORS COMMENTS
This image portrays Albert, Duke of Saxony (1443-1500), a courageous and influential figure in European history. Known as the founder of the Albertine branch of the House of Wettin, Albert held the prestigious titles of Captain General of the Low Countries and Marshall of the Holy Roman Empire. Born in 1443, Albert was an animosus (zealous) leader who made significant contributions to the political landscape of the time. He is depicted here in full armor, ready for battle, with his shield bearing the insignia of the Wettin dynasty. The intricate design on the shield, featuring the cross keys and the double-O, represents the House of Wettin's heraldry. Albert's military prowess and strategic mind were essential in maintaining order within the Holy Roman Empire and defending its territories against external threats. His leadership extended beyond the battlefield, as he was also a key player in the diplomatic arena. The image captures the essence of Albert as a revered historical figure, a captain and general who led his troops with unwavering determination and a strong sense of duty. The Albertine branch of the House of Wettin, which he established, continues to be an important part of German royalty and European history. This evocative print, with its rich details and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1500s and the time of the Holy Roman Empire. It serves as a testament to Albert's courage and leadership, reminding us of the indelible mark he left on history.
