EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled ""Dieu le veut": au concile de Clermont" captures a significant moment in history. Painted by Francesco Hayez in 1835, the artwork depicts Pope Urban II preaching the First Crusade in the Square of Clermont, located in present-day Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne. In this vibrant and detailed painting, Pierre l'Ermite (also known as Pierre d'Amiens or d'Acheres), a charismatic preacher from the medieval period (1053-1115), passionately addresses a diverse crowd. Dressed in his religious robes and holding a crucifix high above his head, he fervently spreads the message of God's will for Christians to embark on a holy war. The scene is filled with an array of characters - knights adorned with armor, men and women from all walks of life listening intently to Pierre's words, and even cardinals observing from afar. The atmosphere is electric as communication flows between the preacher and believers. Hayez skillfully captures not only historical accuracy but also emotions through his use of colors and attention to detail. The bustling street scene showcases the population of Auvergne during that time period while emphasizing the significance of this first crusade. This remarkable replica transports viewers back to an era when religion played a central role in society. It serves as both an educational tool for understanding history and artistry that evokes contemplation about faith, power dynamics, and human nature itself.
