EDITORS COMMENTS
The Chapter of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem held in Rhodes in 1524, captured beautifully by Claude Jacquand in 1839, depicts a significant moment in history. This oil on canvas print measures 111x112 cm and is housed at the Château de Versailles in France. In this painting, we witness the Chapitre général de l'ordre de Saint-Jean-de-Jérusalem, or the General Chapter of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. Led by Grand Master Fabrizio Caretto (1513-21), the knights gather to discuss strategies and seek grants to resist Sultan Selim I (1470-1520). The atmosphere is tense as these brave men prepare for battle during a time when holy wars were waged. The composition showcases an interior plan with Renaissance influences, highlighting intricate details such as armor and crosses of Malta worn by the knights. Each figure exudes strength and determination as they engage in deep discussion about their mission. Claude Jacquand's masterful brushstrokes bring this historical event to life, capturing not only the physical appearance but also conveying emotions that run deep within each character portrayed. This artwork serves as a reminder of our rich past and honors those who fought valiantly for their beliefs. It stands as a testament to human resilience and unity against adversity.
