EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the grandeur and pageantry of the medieval era, this image showcases the intricate process of arming a knight, as depicted in the chivalric romance "Amadis de Gaula" (Amadis of Gaul). Compiled for the first time in Zaragoza, Spain, in 1508 by Garci Rodriguez de Montalvo, this epic tale of love, adventure, and chivalry quickly gained popularity and was later printed in Venice in 1533 as "Los Quatro libros de Amadis de Gaula: nueuamente impressos y hystoriados." In this striking illustration, a group of men gather around Amadis, the noble knight at the center, as they prepare him for battle. With a serious expression, Amadis stands tall and proud, his masculine form clad in shining armor. The intricate engraving details the meticulous process of arming him, from the placement of his helmet and shield, to the fastening of his sword at his side. The scene is filled with a sense of camaraderie and respect, as the other men assist their comrade in readiness for the trials ahead. This horizontal print, a beautiful example of xylography, is a testament to the enduring allure of the chivalric romance genre and the timeless appeal of the knight's code of honor. Originally printed in Spain, in the Autonomous Community of Madrid, at the National Library, this rare and intriguing piece of history offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of the past, inviting us to explore the world of Amadis de Gaula and the brave knights of old.
