EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Charles Martel, a prominent figure in French history. Believed to have lived from 688 to 741, he is depicted here at the Battle of Poictiers, an event that played a significant role in shaping the destiny of France. The engraving was created by an English School artist during the 19th century and is now part of a private collection. Charles Martel's portrayal on horseback exudes strength and determination as he faces off against his adversaries. Known as "The Hammer" this warrior ruler led the Frankish kingdoms with great valor and strategic prowess. His victory over the Moors at Poictiers marked a crucial turning point in halting Muslim invasion into Europe. In this portrait, we witness Charles Martel armed with spear and shield, ready for battle against the Saracens or Sarcens (a term used to refer to Muslims during medieval times). As a devout Christian leader engaged in holy war, he defended his land against foreign forces seeking dominance. This image not only captures historical significance but also highlights elements of equestrian sport. Charles Martel's commanding presence on horseback reflects both his military expertise and sporting prowess. Through this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness one of France's most iconic leaders who shaped its future through bravery and resilience.
