Title: The Heroine
Post by: JerryMort on April 08, 2015, 04:03:12 AM

This set also has EH on the base so would have originally been Ernst Henniges. Has KH and EK on the base. Was available from Historia Muller. Also set in the Crusades but is there a story behind this or is it just an imaginary scene? A nice set, I think.

I also have this on my half-painted shelf. I did see the engraving it was based on in a newspaper several years ago, but I can neither remember the story behind it nor find the cutting.

Beautiful set, loos like a knight battling against a Sarrazin for a water well  with  a few deads around,   Would be very nice to paint for a small diorama in the desert !!

The knight is on the ground with his fallen horse. Raising her sword to defend him is a woman on horseback, while other Saracens, having already been wounded, look on.
