EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Knight of Death" transports us back to the Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into the intricate world of military and religious life during that time. Inspired by Albert Durer's original engraving from 1513, this image showcases the knight as he embarks on his solemn journey. Fully armed and mounted on his majestic horse, the knight exudes an aura of strength and determination. His armor glistens in the sunlight, reflecting both his prowess in battle and unwavering commitment to his cause. However, what truly sets this image apart is the presence of two intriguing figures accompanying him – Sin and Death personified. Sin takes form as a footman faithfully following behind the knight, while Death assumes the role of a squire at his side. These companions serve as a constant reminder of mortality's ever-looming shadow over even the noblest endeavors. Their inclusion adds depth to this visual narrative, emphasizing themes such as redemption, mortality, and spiritual struggle. As we delve into this mesmerizing illustration from Paul Lacroix's renowned book "Military and Religious Life in The Middle Ages" published in London circa 1880s, we are transported to an era where chivalry coexisted with darkness. This artwork by Albrecht Durer encapsulates not only artistic brilliance but also serves as a window into medieval society's complex beliefs and values. Ken Welsh has masterfully captured every detail within this print without compromising its historical significance or aesthetic appeal.
