EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 15th century, immersing us in a world of medieval warfare. The image captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing a hand cannon or "Baton a feu" as it was known during that era. This portable weapon was an innovation of its time, revolutionizing the way battles were fought. The engraving is based on an illustration found on a tapestry belonging to the Church of Notre Dame de Nantilly in Saumur. It depicts a soldier, his determined gaze fixed on his target, aiming the hand cannon with precision and skill. The intensity in his eyes reflects the gravity of war and emphasizes the importance of this powerful weapon. Paul Lacroix's expertise shines through this detailed wood engraving from his book "The Arts of the Middle Ages and at the Period of Renaissance". His meticulous attention to historical accuracy transports us back centuries ago, allowing us to witness firsthand how armaments evolved over time. As we admire this print, we are reminded not only of humanity's ingenuity but also its capacity for conflict. It serves as a testament to our relentless pursuit for power and dominance throughout history. Let this image be a reminder that progress often comes at great cost - both physically and emotionally - as soldiers like these risked their lives on ancient battlefields wielding weapons like this hand cannon.
