EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph from 1889 captures the noble figure of Rudolph von Sachsenhausen in his 14th-century armor, a true symbol of chivalry and heraldry. The intricate details of his surcoat with coat of arms, suit of armor, great helm, and escutcheon are brought to life in vivid color by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck's skilled illustration.
Rudolph II von Praunheim, who passed away in 1370, is depicted here as a valiant knight ready for battle, standing tall and proud. This image is based on a grave effigy found in Frankfurt Cathedral, showcasing the historical accuracy that Dr. Hefner-Alteneck was known for.
As a German museum curator and art historian, Dr. Hefner-Alteneck dedicated his life to preserving and celebrating the art and fashion of the Middle Ages through his illustrations. His attention to detail and passion for history shine through in this exquisite lithograph.
This print serves as a timeless reminder of an era defined by honor, courage, and tradition. Rudolph von Sachsenhausen's legacy lives on through this artwork, inviting us to step back in time and admire the craftsmanship and beauty of medieval armor.
