EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 15th century, immersing us in a world of medieval crusaders embarking on a perilous journey. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of this historic moment, depicting warriors clad in armor and armed with weapons as they sail across treacherous waters. The scene is taken from an illustration for the Tuscan poem "Febusso e Breusso" found within the Manuscript MS. B. R. 45 housed at Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale in Florence, Italy. This miniature artwork showcases intricate details and vibrant colors that bring life to each figure on board. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the bravery and determination exhibited by these crusaders who set out to defend their beliefs. Their helmets gleam under the sunlight while their bucklers stand ready for battle. The boat itself becomes a symbol of both transport and protection, carrying them towards unknown lands where danger awaits. This piece serves as a testament to not only historical events but also to literature's ability to inspire visual artistry. Through illumination techniques commonly used during that era, every arm and weapon is meticulously depicted with precision. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly preserved this significant moment through her photography skills, allowing us access into a time long gone by. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring impact it continues to have on our present-day understanding of culture and warfare in medieval times.
