Saint Louis et la 7e Croisade #[nn]

A striking figure in royal blue robes adorned with golden fleurs-de-lis raises a sword before the looming walls of a fortress city, a crimson banner streaming dramatically behind him — Robert Paquet's artwork immediately sets the stage for medieval ambition on a grand scale. This Editions Plein Vent release brings the story of Saint Louis and the Seventh Crusade to life in vivid bande dessinée form, with that brooding, smoke-toned skyline perfectly capturing the weight of a king's holy mission. A handsome 2024 addition for anyone drawn to historical adventure and the rich tradition of European comics storytelling.
