EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Tower of Louis D Outremer at Laon, which unfortunately met its demise in 1831. The tower was named after Louis IV, also known as d Outremer or Transmarinus, who ruled from 936 to 954 amidst political rivalries with a puppet of Hugh the Great. This intriguing image is sourced from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History, Vol. III - The Middle Ages" by Edmund Ollier, published in London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1890. The photograph showcases the tower's exterior surrounded by an overgrown landscape in Aisne Picardy, France. It provides a glimpse into medieval history and the architectural wonders that once graced this picturesque town. Standing tall against the backdrop of nature's beauty, it serves as a reminder of past glory and resilience. Although created by an unknown artist from the nineteenth century, this print has been preserved through time thanks to Heritage Images. Its monochrome composition adds a touch of nostalgia and enhances our appreciation for historical landmarks like the Tower of Louis D Outremer. As we gaze upon this scene captured on paper so many years ago, we are transported back to an era filled with tales of power struggles and cultural heritage. It reminds us that even though physical structures may crumble over time, their stories continue to live on through art and documentation.
