EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving depicts the dramatic arrival of the crusaders before Jerusalem during the First Crusade in 1099. The image, created by an anonymous European School artist in the 19th century, showcases a pivotal moment in history when Belgian soldiers and other European troops embarked on a holy mission to reclaim the Holy Land. The scene is filled with historical significance as it captures the essence of warfare, military strategy, and medieval Europe's fervent religious beliefs. The composition portrays a vast army of crusaders descending upon Jerusalem, their determination evident in their faces and body language. Clad in armor and armed with weapons, these brave soldiers stand ready for combat as they prepare to face formidable challenges. The print serves as an illustration for Histoire De Belgique by Theodore Juste (Alexandre Jamar), published around 1870. It offers viewers a glimpse into this significant event through its meticulous details and vibrant colors. As we gaze at this artwork today, we are transported back to the eleventh century – an era defined by conflict between different cultures and ideologies. This engraving not only commemorates Belgium's involvement but also highlights how this historic event shaped Europe's history forever. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this print stands as a testament to human resilience, faith-driven endeavors, and our enduring fascination with exploring past civilizations.
