EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic figure of The Paladin Roland, a legendary character from the 12th-century epic poem, "The Song of Roland". Dressed in formidable armor, he exudes strength and valor. His helmet protects his head while his chainmail tunic, stocking, and legging provide him with additional defense on the battlefield. In his hands, Roland wields a sword engraved with the name Durindarda – a weapon that symbolizes his bravery and prowess. This mighty sword is ready to strike down any foe who dares to challenge him. Accompanying it is a large shield that serves as both protection and an emblem of honor. The figure depicted here can be found on the portal of Verona Cathedral, adding historical significance to this artwork. Handcolored by Leopold Massard in 1834, this copperplate engraving brings out the intricate details of Roland's attire and weaponry. As we gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to an era filled with chivalry and heroism. It reminds us of the enduring power of legends like The Paladin Roland whose tales continue to inspire generations even centuries later.
