EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic portrait of Richard I, famously known as Richard the Lionheart. Painted in 1841 by Merry Joseph Blondel, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 170x114 cm and is currently housed at the Château de Versailles in France. Richard I, a revered figure in English history, ruled as King of England during the late 12th century. His valiant leadership and courageous spirit earned him the nickname "Lionheart" symbolizing his bravery and prowess on the battlefield. In this striking profile portrait, Richard stands tall with a regal crown adorning his head. He dons a majestic cape made from luxurious ermine fur, signifying his royal status. The intricate details of his helmet and coat of mail highlight his role as a crusader during the Third Crusade. The cross prominently displayed on Richard's chest serves as a powerful reminder of his devotion to Christianity and his involvement in holy wars. With an intense gaze that exudes determination and strength, he embodies the essence of medieval chivalry. Blondel skillfully captures Richard's three-quarter length pose, allowing viewers to appreciate every aspect of this legendary king's appearance. This remarkable artwork immortalizes Richard I's lion-hearted legacy for generations to come.
