EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Knights in combat, 14th century" takes us back to a time of chivalry and valor. The image is part of the collection "Illustrations of Mediaeval Costume in England" from 1853, created by the English School during the 19th century. The scene depicted showcases two knights engaged in a fierce battle. Clad in intricately detailed armor and wielding swords with determination, they epitomize the spirit of medieval warfare. Their helmets protect their heads while their shields provide an additional layer of defense against enemy strikes. The print's rich colors bring life to every element, from the vibrant reds and blues adorning their coats-of-arms to the golden accents that highlight their armor's craftsmanship. The attention to detail transports viewers into this historical moment where honor was upheld through martial skill. This artwork originates from a manuscript called "Roman du Roy Meliadus" found at the British Museum. It serves as a testament to both artistic talent and historical preservation efforts. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of an era when knights were revered for their bravery on horseback and loyalty to their lords. It invites us to appreciate not only the artistry but also the stories hidden within these ancient illustrations – tales that continue to captivate our imagination centuries later.
