EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from 1882 depicts Jan Zizka on the winning side at the Battle of Grunwald in 1410. The artwork, created by an English School artist from the 19th century, showcases a pivotal moment in medieval European history. Jan Zizka, also known as Johann Ziska or Schischka, was a Czech general and devoted follower of Jan Huss. The Battle of Grunwald, alternatively known as the Battle of Tannenberg, saw the Teutonic Knights face off against Poland and Lithuania. This clash resulted in a resounding defeat for the Knights and significantly altered the balance of power during that era. The illustration is sourced from "A Pictorial History of the World's Great Nations" authored by Charlotte Mary Yonge and published in New York. In this litho print, we witness Jan Zizka leading his army with unwavering determination. His commanding presence exudes strength and courage as he guides his troops to victory against their adversaries. The image captures not only a historical event but also highlights key elements such as conflict, medieval warfare tactics, and military leadership. With its intricate details and masterful execution through engraving techniques, this prismatic picture transports us back to an age when knights fought valiantly on battlefields. It serves as a testament to both Jan Zizka's legacy as a revered commander within Bohemia and his crucial role in shaping Europe's political landscape during this tumultuous period. (Note:
