EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a scene from a 13th century Miracle Play, a theatrical production popular during the Middle Ages that retold biblical stories and legends. The tableau depicted in this image shows Saladin, the renowned Sultan of Egypt and Syria, making his way towards Satan and Hell. Dressed in rich robes and wearing a turban, Saladin is portrayed with a determined expression, as if accepting his fate. Saladin, known for his military prowess and religious tolerance, ruled the Islamic world from 1193 to 1198. He is best remembered for his victory over the Crusaders at the Battle of Hattin in 1187, which marked the end of the Crusader presence in the Holy Land. However, this photograph illustrates a different side of Saladin's story, one that was popularized in European folklore and depicted in numerous Miracle Plays. The Miracle Plays were an important form of medieval entertainment, often performed during religious festivals and processions. They were typically staged outdoors, with elaborate tableaus that brought biblical stories and legends to life. The use of real-life settings and actors, along with the incorporation of music and dance, made these plays a powerful and immersive experience for the audience. This photograph, taken in 1910, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of medieval theater and the stories that captivated audiences centuries ago. The image, which shows Saladin heading towards Hell, is a poignant reminder of the complex and multifaceted nature of historical figures, and the enduring power of storytelling to shape our understanding of the past.
