My Brush with Royalty: King Richard, My Muse
Jul
Hello, art lovers! Ricardo here, the artist known for my obsession with medieval times. You may have seen my paintings on my new website or in galleries—but have you ever wondered what fuels my passion for portraying this iconic figure?
The Medieval Times that Captured My Imagination
From a young age, when I would walk through the Crusader ruins of Akko, the city where I grew up, and when I looked at the everyday tools and impressive iron clothes of the Crusaders in the local museum I felt drawn to their lost glory. The recognition that Akko was also an important Jewish center that took part in the development of Kabbalah increased my desire to trace those golden days.

Painting as a Window to the Past
I believe that art is not just about aesthetics; it’s a way to connect with history, to bring the past to life. Through my paintings, I strive to capture the essence of medieval times. I want viewers to feel like they’re stepping back in time, glimpsing a moment in the life of legendary nights and kings.
