EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the First Crusade. In the image, we see Godefroi (or Godefroy) of Bouillon, a prominent figure during this tumultuous period. Born in 1058 and passing away in 1100, Godefroi led an attack on Jerusalem in 1099. The scene is depicted through a beautifully detailed miniature from the "Roman De Godefroy De Bouillon et de Saladin" created by an unknown artist in 14th century Paris. Housed within the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this artwork showcases the skill and artistry of its creator. Godefroi stands tall within a round tower as he prepares to engage in battle. The illumination highlights his armor-clad arm holding a weapon while arrows fly through the air around him. This portrayal evokes both awe and admiration for his bravery and determination. The castle's architecture serves as a reminder of the strategic importance placed upon fortifications during this time. It symbolizes not only protection but also power and dominance over territories. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, we are transported back to that fateful year of 1099 when Godefroi fought valiantly for control over Jerusalem during one of Christianity's most significant conflicts - The First Crusade.
