EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white woodcut print, created by the talented artist Hartmannus Schedel in 1493, depicts the renowned Tamerlane, also known as Tamerlaine or Timur-i-Lang. A Turcic conqueror born in 1336 and passing away in 1405, Tamerlane was a prominent Islamic leader who played a significant role in the conquest of Persia and northern India. His military prowess led him to defeat the Ottomans in 1402. The intensity of this portrait captures the essence of Tamerlane's power and authority. Clad in his formidable armor, he exudes an air of dominance that befits his reputation as a fierce warrior. This image offers us a glimpse into the turbulent times of warfare during the fifteenth century. Hartmannus Schedel's skillful woodcut technique brings depth and character to this historical figure, emphasizing every intricate detail with precision. The monochrome aesthetic adds an element of timelessness to this artwork. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, we are transported back to an era where conquests shaped nations and leaders like Tamerlane left indelible marks on history. It serves as a reminder of how one man's ambition can shape the destiny of entire countries
