EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Wagon Fort" from the Medieval Housebook of Wolfegg Castle, dating back to around 1485. Created by the talented Master of the Housebook of Wolfegg Castle, who was active between 1480 and 1490, this artwork is a true testament to medieval fortification in Germany. Immersing us in a world of knights and crusades, this illuminated manuscript transports us to the Middle Ages. The fine art images depicted within this piece offer a glimpse into German history and its rich medieval heritage. With intricate details painted with watercolor on parchment, every stroke brings life to this historical scene. The wagon fort itself stands as a symbol of defense during the Hussite Wars, also known as laager or wagenburg. This unique military tactic involved arranging wagons in circular formations for protection against enemy attacks. As we admire this masterpiece, we are reminded of the bravery and ingenuity displayed by those who fought during these tumultuous times. Preserved in a private collection today, this photograph print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind such illuminated art forms. It serves as a window into an era long gone yet still celebrated for its contributions to our understanding of medieval Europe's past.
