EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 13th century, immersing us in a pivotal moment of history. Depicting King Louis IX in the Crusades attacking the Moors in Carthage (1270), this drawing by Santiago Ortega transports us to a time when religion and power clashed amidst the chaos of war. The vibrant colors used in this artwork bring life to an era long gone, allowing us to witness the intensity of battle on a horizontal canvas. King Louis IX, known for his devout faith and strong leadership, stands at the forefront with determination etched upon his face. His presence commands attention as he leads his troops against their Moorish adversaries. Carthage serves as a backdrop for this historic clash, its ancient ruins bearing witness to centuries of conquests and conflicts. The Crusades were driven by religious fervor and political ambitions, shaping not only Europe but also leaving an indelible mark on North Africa. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of how history unfolds through both triumphs and tragedies. It is a testament to human ambition and conviction that continues to shape our world today. This drawing captures one chapter within that vast tapestry - an emblematic representation of medieval warfare where cultures collided under banners emblazoned with faith. Through this remarkable piece by Santiago Ortega, we are transported back in time - invited into an epic struggle between East and West that forever altered the course of history.
