EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the construction of the magnificent fortress Montauban in Tarn and Garonne, Midi Pyrenees during the 12th century. The image, an Epinal from 1825, depicts a scene from the epic poem "The Four Aymon Sons" which dates back to the end of the 13th century. Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is housed at Musee Departemental D Art Ancien Et Contemporain in Epinal, France. Intriguingly detailed, this engraving showcases a pulley system being used by horsemen as they work on constructing this grand castle. It beautifully portrays elements of literature and poetry intertwined with medieval architecture and engineering marvels. The depiction highlights not only the physical construction site but also evokes a sense of brotherhood among those involved in building such fortifications. Leonard de Selva's expert photography skillfully captures every intricate detail of this historical moment frozen in time. This photograph invites viewers to step into an era long gone and appreciate both the scale and complexity of medieval construction techniques. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported to a world where castles were more than mere dwellings; they represented power, protection, and prestige. Through its portrayal of fortification and housing structures from that period, this image serves as a testament to human ingenuity throughout history.
