EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Middle Ages and witness the Swedish army in preparation for the pivotal Battle of Brunkeberg in 1471. In this evocative print from the Medieval Museum in Stockholm, Sweden, we see a soldier on horseback and one on foot, both determinedly making their way towards the battlefield. The horseman, clad in full armor, sits tall in his saddle, his steed adorned with a banner bearing the Swedish cross. His armor, a testament to the advanced military technology of the time, includes a helmet with a visor, a jacket covered in small plates, and greaves protecting his legs. The foot soldier, equally armored, carries a halberd, a versatile weapon used for both thrusting and hacking. His armor, while similar in design to the horseman's, is more streamlined for ground combat. The soldier's helmet, with a distinctive crest, covers his entire head and neck, leaving only his eyes visible. The Battle of Brunkeberg, fought on November 11, 1471, was a decisive victory for the Swedes against the invading Danish forces. This print, with its intricate detail and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of chivalry, honor, and courage.
