EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as The King of France Louis IX (Saint Louis) sets sail on the seventh crusade. Taken from the 15th-century manuscript "Les passages faits Outremer par les FranAzais contre les Turks et autres Sarrazins et Moures Outremarine" by Sebastien Mamerot, this miniature offers a glimpse into the medieval world. Intricately illuminated and exquisitely detailed, the image showcases a majestic marine vessel adorned with French flags, symbolizing the might and power of the French navy. The ship stands tall against a backdrop of an ancient city, evoking a sense of adventure and anticipation for what lies ahead. Louis IX's determination to reclaim holy lands from Turkish and Saracen forces is palpable in this artwork. His unwavering faith and commitment to his cause are evident as he embarks on this perilous journey alongside his fellow crusaders. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back to an era defined by bravery, chivalry, and religious fervor. It serves as a reminder of how individuals like Louis IX were willing to risk everything for their beliefs. This photograph not only celebrates Saint Louis' role in history but also pays homage to the artistic mastery displayed by unknown artists during that time period. Their skillful craftsmanship has preserved this momentous event for generations to come.
