EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Knight of Malta from the order of St John of Jerusalem, dating back to the 16th century. Created by the talented artist Jost Amman, this woodcut portrait beautifully captures the essence of a dedicated knight who fought against infidels while also tending to the sick and wounded. Dressed in traditional attire, this knight stands tall with his sword held firmly in hand, symbolizing his commitment to defending his country and protecting those in need. His cloak drapes elegantly over his shoulders, adding an air of nobility to his appearance. With a staff by his side, he embodies both strength and compassion as a healer. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to this powerful image. It transports us back in time when religion played a significant role in warfare, highlighting the devotion that these knights had towards their cause. Jost Amman's attention to detail is evident through every stroke of this woodcut print. The intricate depiction of weapons and clothing reflects not only historical accuracy but also serves as a reminder of the challenges faced during that era. This remarkable piece allows us to appreciate both the bravery and humanity exhibited by knights like him during times of war and sickness. It serves as a testament to their unwavering dedication towards serving others selflessly.
