EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the intricate details of the Seal of Simon de Montfort, a significant historical artifact dating back to the 12th century. This metal seal, created by the French School, is housed in the Centre Historique des Archives Nationales in Paris, France. Simon de Montfort was a renowned leader who played a pivotal role in the Albigensian Crusade against the Cathars in southern France. The seal showcases his authority and military prowess as he is depicted on horseback with a knightly attire. The relief and moulded design highlight every aspect of this emblematic figure. Notably, accompanying Simon de Montfort on his steed is an elegantly portrayed hound, symbolizing loyalty and companionship during his crusades. The inscription surrounding them adds further context to their mission against Catharism. This image offers us a glimpse into medieval times when chivalry and honor were highly valued virtues. It serves as a testament to both Simon de Montfort's bravery and determination as well as an important historical record of one of France's most significant military campaigns. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured this remarkable piece of artistry through their expert photography skills, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty even from afar.
