"Freedom from Fear" (1942) by Arthur Szyk – A Knightly Vision of Liberty

Do come into a page of illuminated patriotism: this arresting wartime illustration by the master miniaturist Arthur Szyk, created in New York in 1942, transforms American ideals into medieval heraldry of the highest order.

Here stands a knight of freedom, noble and resolute, clad in ornate armour inlaid with stars, stripes, and federal emblems. His steed, just as richly adorned, marches forward with unflinching might. A banner unfurls overhead, inscribed with the words "Freedom from Fear"—one of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Four Freedoms and a rallying cry against tyranny.

Szyk’s hand, ever precise and lavish, renders every filigree, rivet, and tassel with the opulence of a Renaissance manuscript. Yet this is no relic. It is a living symbol of vigilance, and a brilliant fusion of American spirit with Old World pageantry.
