"Unveiling the Timeless Splendor: A Glimpse into the World of Traditional Armour" Step back in time as Archduke Maximilian of Austria pays a visit to an esteemed armourer, captured forever in a captivating engraving. The grandeur and craftsmanship come alive as Mr Edwin J Bretts Collection takes center stage at the Tudor Exhibition, leaving spectators awestruck. Immerse yourself in the military habits of the 15th and 16th centuries through a vividly colored engraving that transports you to battlefields long past. Richard the Lionheart himself emerges from history's pages, depicted with regal elegance in a striking color lithograph. Journey further into this enchanting era as armorers' artistry unfolds before your eyes through another beautifully colored engraving showcasing exquisite armaments from the 16th century. Thomas Gifford of Leckhampton's masterpieces stand testament to his skill and dedication. Art transcends boundaries, even when it comes to traditional armour. "The Divine Eros Defeats the Earthly Eros, " painted on canvas circa 1602, captures both ethereal beauty and protective strength within its brushstrokes. Witness Joan of Arc, la Pucelle d Orleans herself, clad in her iconic armor that symbolizes her unwavering courage and determination. Italian military costume from the 15th century offers yet another glimpse into this rich tapestry of history. Emperor Maximilian I of Germany triumphs over his opponent during a jousting tournament—an extraordinary moment preserved for eternity through an intricate woodcut dating back to approximately 1515—a testament to chivalry's glory days. Intrigue awaits as "The Espolio" unveils The Disrobing of Christ itself—cunningly portrayed by oil on panel between 1577-79—where spiritual symbolism intertwines with armored figures guarding the divine.
