SquareTrade © AP6.0This beautiful chess set depicts the story of a war, holy visions, unholy alliances, sieges and slaughters, the details of which fill volumes.
The Christian side led by King Richard I of England, known as Richard the Lionheart, is in combat with the Muslim armies led by Saladin.
The chess set concentrates particularly on the Third Great Crusade lead by King Richard I of England, who in 1189 joined King Philip II of France in an effort to recapture the holy city of Jerusalem.
King Richard, with 8000 troops, seized Cyprus and some cities on the Palestinian coast, but ultimately failed to dislodge the Muslim leader, Saladin, from Jerusalem.
