EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Guy I, Count of Ponthieu, and his equerry in the late 11th century. The engraving, created by the Austrian School in the 18th century, showcases their distinctive costumes and weaponry. Guy I stands tall in a crimson mantle and a scale armor tunic, exuding power and authority. He firmly holds a battle axe, symbolizing his strength as a warrior. His equerry stands beside him wearing an unusual helmet that adds to his mysterious allure. Clad in leather breastplate and skirts with a flowing mantle, he carries a sword sheathed in its scabbard. The hand-colored copperplate engraving brings these historical figures to life with vibrant colors that highlight every intricate detail of their attire. This artwork is part of Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture collection depicting costumes from antiquity through the Middle Ages. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to medieval France where nobility reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder of Europe's rich history and cultural heritage during this period. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship behind this engraving but also provides insight into the lives of notable figures like Guy I and his loyal equerry.
