EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking engraving depicts Guillaume de Clermont, a French knight, valiantly defending the city of Ptolemais (now known as Acre) during the Crusades. The image, based on an original painting by Dominique Papety in 1845, captures the intensity and heroism of the Crusades era. The scene unfolds outside the fortified walls of the city, bathed in the warm, natural light of day. Guillaume, dressed in full armor, stands tall and determined, brandishing a large sword in one hand and shield in the other, as he fends off an onslaught of attacking forces. The engraving, held in the National Library of Catalonia (Biblioteca de Catalunya) in Barcelona, Spain, is a testament to the rich historical and artistic heritage of the Crusades period. The intricate details of the engraving, from the textured armor to the expressive faces of the figures, bring the scene to life and transport us back in time to the pivotal moments of this significant period in history.
