Artist's Comments
The Order of the Teutonic Knights were some bad dudes. This is my fantastical/demonized representation of one such individual.
Here's a (very) basic rundown: In the Early 1400s the Teutonic Knights were grown from the Holy Roman Empire (in present day Germany), and funded by the Polish, in an effort to destroy the Pagan presence in the Baltic. The Knights ended up raping, pillaging and slaughtering women and children throughout Poland and Lithuania. The Poles said "Eh.. shit my bad", joined forces with the Lithuanian army, and eventually defeated the Teutonic Order at the Battle of Grunwald in 1410. The Knights have been used extensively throughout history as both a symbol of military might and as a symbol of barbarism (depending on which country was pushing the propaganda...) |

 reports, 1d 22h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
