EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the magnificent fresco titled "The Nine Worthies and the Nine Worthy Women". Painted by the talented artist Jaquerio, this masterpiece dates back to 1418-30 and can be found in the Castello della Manta in Saluzzo, Italy. In this particular section of the fresco, we are presented with three remarkable figures: Julius Caesar, Joshua, and King David. These individuals represent renowned men from Christian history, Pagan history, and the Old Testament respectively. Alongside them stand other notable figures such as Judas Maccabeus, King Arthur, Charlemagne, Godfrey de Bouillon and Delphine. Hector and Alexander the Great also make an appearance. The attention to detail is truly awe-inspiring; each character is depicted with utmost precision and skill. From their regal attire to their powerful stances holding swords or shields adorned with heraldic devices - every element adds depth to their portrayal. As we admire this print's composition, it becomes evident that it captures not only historical significance but also symbolizes strength and valor. The presence of Charles the Great (Charlemagne) further emphasizes these qualities as he stands tall wearing his crown while clutching a sword firmly in one hand. His beard exudes wisdom while fleur-de-lys motifs adorn his regalia. This extraordinary artwork transports us back in time while reminding us of humanity's fascination with legendary heroes throughout history. It serves as
