EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured print, titled "Charlemagne's knights setting off to fight the Saracens" takes us back in time to an era of chivalry and epic battles. Created by the French School in the 15th century, this miniature from Ogier le Danois showcases the artistry and attention to detail that was prevalent during this period. The scene depicts a group of brave knights clad in intricate plate armor, preparing to embark on their noble quest. With their swords at their sides and determination etched on their faces, they stand ready for battle against the Saracens. The soldiers are seen boarding a majestic ship with towering masts, symbolizing both power and adventure. Printed by A. Verard in Paris in 1499, this hand-coloured masterpiece is a testament to early printing techniques and craftsmanship. The vibrant colors bring life to each figure and highlight the beauty of traditional armor worn by these valiant warriors. As we gaze upon this historical artwork housed at Biblioteca Nazionale in Turin, Italy, we can't help but be transported into an age where honor and bravery were revered virtues. This print serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and pays homage to those who fought for what they believed in. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with an extraordinary piece that captures not only history but also our imagination.
