Categories: MANUSCRIPT,ILLUMINATED, The Mongolian seige of Bagdad in 1258. Double-page from Rashid al-Din's (1247 - 1318) enormous universal history, the "Jami al-Tawarikh". 320 x 230 mm, Herat, Afghanistan; around 1430-1434, The Jami al-Tawarikh was commissioned by Mahmud Ghazan, begun as a history of the Mongols and their dynasty and then expanded to include history from Adam to Rashid al-Din's present day. It was completed during the reign of Oljeitu in 1307-1316. The Jami' al-Tawarikh is perhaps the single most comprehensive Persian source on the Mongol period. Sayf Al-Vahedi, who worked as painter in the workshop-library of Baysonqor, is the author of the majority of the illustrations of this manuscript. Realized on a double page, this painting illustrates the siege of Baghdad by the Mongolian armies of Hulagu Khan in 1258. Caliph Al-Musta'sim crosses the bridge on the Tigris, ready to meet Hulagu Kahn (grandson of Genghis Khan). On the top of the walls of the city a Persan poem written by Sayf Al-Vahedi celebrates the charm of Baghdad.

Byline: Froissart,Jean,Chronicler (1333-1400), Categories: MANUSCRIPT,ILLUMINATED, The battle of Crécy: Edward the Black Prince (1330-1376, son of Edward III of England) commanding the English army including longbow archers against the strong French troops. From Jean Froissart's Chroniques; Bruges, Belgium; third half of the 14th century. The Battle of Crécy took place on 26 August, 1346, near Crécy, in northern France and was one of the most important battles of the Hundred Years' War. Because of new weapons and tactics used, the battle is seen by many historians as the beginning of the end of chivalry. The battle in which a much smaller English army commanded by Edward III of England and heavily outnumbered by Philip VI of France's force was victorious as a result of superior weaponry and tactics. It was a battle where the effectiveness of the English longbow, used en masse, was proven against armoured knights.

Froissart,Jean,Chronicler (1333-1400) The Jacquerie at Meaux (1358). From Jean Froissart's Chroniques; Bruges, Belgium; third half of the 14th century. The Jacquerie was a popular revolt in late medieval Europe that took place in northern France in 1358, during the Hundred Years' War. The revolt centered in the Oise Valley north of Paris. These rebellions were known as the Jacquerie after the peasant revolutionary Guillaume Caillet, popularly known as Jacques Bonhomme ("Simple Jack") or Callet. The revolt was suppressed by French nobles led by Charles the Bad of Navarre. Caillet, who was the leader of the rebellion, was captured by the French nobles and tortured to death by use of red-hot irons. The word "Jacquerie" became a synonym for peasant uprisings, and for centuries the nobility lived in fear of a repeat performance. Bibliotheque Nat.,Coll.des Manuscripts,France,Paris,
