EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Richard I sets sail for the Holy Land, 1939" takes us back in time to witness a significant moment in history. The image depicts King Richard I of England, also known as Richard the Lionheart or Coeur de Lion, embarking on his journey to the Holy Land during the Third Crusade. The print showcases a scene filled with medieval grandeur and military might. Clad in chainmail armor, troops and soldiers surround their leader as he prepares to depart for this religious war. The presence of a bishop blessing Richard adds an air of solemnity and divine intervention to this departure. As we gaze at this artwork from an English School artist found within a private collection, we are transported into the heart of medieval Europe. It is impossible not to feel captivated by the bravery and determination emanating from Richard's figure as he bows before setting sail. This lithograph serves as a powerful reminder of historical events that shaped our world today. It encapsulates both the political power struggles within Europe during that era and the fervent religious beliefs that drove thousands to embark on these crusades. Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain insight into one of history's most iconic rulers who left his mark on both England and beyond.
