EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The True Cross" transports us back to the tumultuous era of the Crusades in the 12th century. Created by renowned artist Gustave Dore in the 19th century, this engraved image beautifully captures a pivotal moment in history. In this scene, we witness an army of Crusaders being roused by the awe-inspiring sight of the true cross. Clad in suits of armor and wielding swords, these knights stand ready for battle under their royal leader's command. The image showcases a perfect blend of illustration and painting techniques that bring every detail to life. Amidst the chaos of war, one can spot a monk fervently praying while soldiers on horseback charge forward with their shields raised high. This monoprint evokes a sense of determination and faith as Christianity played a central role during this time period. "The True Cross" serves as both an art product and historical documentation, reminding us of past triumphs and struggles. It symbolizes not only military invasion but also religious devotion that shaped medieval society. Gustave Dore's masterful depiction leaves us captivated by its old-fashioned charm while offering insight into significant events from our rich history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, it is impossible not to be transported back to an age where bravery clashed with adversity on ancient battlefields.
