EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts knights setting out from their castle on the First Crusade in 1096. The image, created by the European School in the 19th century, showcases a momentous event in history. Published as part of a series on events along the banks of the Rhine, this Liebig card offers an educational glimpse into medieval warfare and religious conflicts. The scene portrays a group of brave knights mounted on horseback, ready to embark on their perilous journey. With determined expressions and armor gleaming under the sun's rays, they symbolize the courage and devotion of Christian crusaders during this tumultuous period. The castle stands proudly behind them, its towering walls evoking both strength and protection. As they depart from their stronghold, these warriors leave behind familiar dwellings for unknown lands filled with uncertainty and danger. The riverbank serves as a backdrop to this historic moment, emphasizing that these knights are not only leaving their castle but also crossing borders into foreign territories. Their departure signifies not only physical movement but also a spiritual quest driven by faith. This print captures an important chapter in European history when armies were formed to reclaim holy sites from non-Christian control. It is a reminder of the bravery exhibited by those who fought for their beliefs during one of Europe's most significant military campaigns - The First Crusade.
