EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century depicts Godfrey of Bouillon, a prominent figure in medieval history. Known as the First King of Jerusalem and Duke of Lower Lorraine, Godfrey played a crucial role during the First Crusade. In this print, he is shown alongside other notable crusaders such as Raymond, Count of Toulouse, Bohemond I, and Tancred. Mounted on horseback with an air of authority and determination, these brave men don chain mail armor as they embark on their holy mission to reclaim Jerusalem. The equestrian scene captures the essence of chivalry and valor that defined knights during this era. The intricate details in this wood engraving showcase the craftsmanship of American artists from the 19th century. From the elaborate caparison adorning their horses to every fold in their garments, no aspect has been overlooked. This historical artwork transports us back to a time when religious fervor fueled epic journeys across vast lands. It serves as a reminder of both the glory and sacrifice associated with holy wars like the First Crusade. As we admire this remarkable print by The Granger Collection, we are reminded not only of Godfrey's significant contributions but also those made by countless others who sought to shape history through faith and bravery.
