EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Departure of Richard I from Cyprus" takes us back to the 12th century and immerses us in a momentous historical event. Created by an anonymous English artist during the 19th century, this print captures the essence of King Richard I's departure from Cyprus during the Crusades. The image showcases a grand scene with meticulous attention to detail. We see King Richard I, famously known as Richard the Lionheart or Richard Coeur de Lion, standing tall on his ship as it sets sail from the shores of Cyprus. The king's regal presence is accentuated by his majestic attire and confident demeanor. Surrounded by his loyal knights and soldiers, their armor glinting in the sunlight, King Richard exudes both power and determination. The composition skillfully conveys a sense of anticipation and adventure as they embark on their crusade towards Jerusalem. This particular print was originally featured in "The History of England" by Hume and Smollett in 1854. Thanks to digital restoration techniques applied to this image, we can now appreciate its beauty with enhanced clarity. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment that shaped history. It serves as a testament to human ambition, bravery, and unwavering faith during one of Europe's most significant military campaigns – the Crusades led by none other than King Richard I himself.
