EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of the renowned English mercenary and condottiere, John Hawkwood. Created by an unknown artist in the 16th century using xylography, this piece is a true testament to the talent and skill of its creator. John Hawkwood, also known as Jean Haccoude or Giovanni Acuto, lived from 1320 to 1394 and left an indelible mark on history with his military prowess. The engraving beautifully captures his commanding presence and steely determination. The intricate details of this artwork transport us back to the Middle Ages, where Hawkwood's exploits were legendary. His service extended beyond England's borders as he ventured into Brittany and other parts of Europe, leaving an enduring impact wherever he went. Displayed in a private collection, this print serves as a reminder of Hawkwood's significant role in shaping military strategies during that era. It offers viewers a glimpse into the life of one of Britain's most formidable warriors. Giancarlo Costa has expertly captured every nuance within this historic image while ensuring it remains faithful to its original form. As we admire this extraordinary work, let us appreciate not only the artistry behind it but also the incredible story it tells about John Hawkwood - a man who became synonymous with bravery and leadership on the battlefield.
