This print captures the defining moment in history when Godfrey de Bouillon led the First Crusade to siege Jerusalem in 1099. As a Frankish knight and one of the esteemed leaders of this holy expedition, Godfrey's determination and bravery shine through his resolute gaze. Published in 1855 as part of Histoire de France, this illustration transports us back to a time of religious fervor and epic battles. The image showcases the intense struggle between Christian crusaders and Muslim defenders within the ancient city's fortified walls. Towering siege towers loom ominously, symbolizing both hope for victory and impending doom. The capture of Jerusalem is depicted with meticulous detail, emphasizing every element from battlements to ramparts. Godfrey de Bouillon emerges as a central figure amidst chaos, embodying strength and leadership as he brandishes his shield while leading his knights into battle. This historical moment marked not only a military triumph but also held immense religious significance for Christians worldwide. Ken Welsh's masterful composition brings forth an atmosphere charged with tension, illustrating the clash between two faiths at war during the 11th century.
