EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the exquisite craftsmanship and intricate details of two suits of armor dating back to 1550, once owned by Llewelyn Meyrick. The black and gold suit belonged to Helionorous, Eighth Duke of Longueville, featuring a helmet with hinged oreillets, horse barding with plumes, flanchards, and croupiere. The other suit showcases a half throw in armor with a thick breastplate, shoulder pieces, elbow pieces, and thighs. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted and designed for both protection and intimidation on the battlefield. The duke's suit exudes elegance with its regal colors and ornate decorations while the other suit portrays strength and resilience with its sturdy construction. Intriguingly, the figure in the half throw armor holds a wheel-lock pistol and wears a gunpowder primer spanner on a cord - showcasing not only the defensive capabilities of these armors but also their offensive potential. This image transports us back in time to an era where chivalry reigned supreme on the battlefield. It serves as a reminder of the rich history behind these magnificent suits of armor that were once worn by noble warriors like Helionorous himself.
