EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the medieval era, depicting the momentous event of the Conquest of Jerusalem by Charlemagne. The image showcases the legendary figure of Carolus Magnus, also known as Charles the Great, who reigned as King of the Franks from 742 to 814. Taken from a 15th-century manuscript called "Chroniques de Charlemagne" this miniature illustration captures both the grandeur and complexity of this historical conquest. It serves as a testament to Charlemagne's military prowess and his ambition to expand his empire beyond its Frankish borders. The meticulous attention to detail in this artwork is truly remarkable. From the intricate armor worn by soldiers on horseback to the towering walls that surround Jerusalem, every element immerses us in an age long gone. This visual representation offers a glimpse into how medieval artists interpreted and celebrated significant events through their craft. Published in London in 1878 by Paul Lacroix as part of his work titled "Science and Literature in the Middle Ages" this image not only preserves history but also highlights society's fascination with past civilizations. It reminds us that even centuries later, we are still captivated by tales of conquests and heroic figures like Charlemagne. Ken Welsh's skillful reproduction allows us to appreciate this piece today, serving as a reminder that art has always played an essential role in preserving our collective memory and understanding our shared heritage.
