EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 15th century, showcasing Frankish archers in all their glory. The image is a wood engraving of the painted hangings found in the town of Rheims, beautifully illustrating the artistry and skill of this ancient craft. In this scene, we witness a group of male soldiers armed with bows and arrows, ready for battle. Their focused expressions reveal their determination as they aim at an unseen target. These warriors embody the essence of medieval warfare, representing both strength and precision. The longbows held by these archers symbolize not only their weaponry but also their connection to nature and tradition. As they prepare to release their arrows into flight, one can almost hear the tension in each bowstring. Paul Lacroix's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life once again. His work captures not only the physicality of these men but also hints at their courage and loyalty towards country and comrades. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time - witnessing a pivotal era where archery played a significant role on the battlefield. It serves as a reminder that even amidst war and conflict, there is beauty in human ingenuity and artistic expression.
