EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Thomas Anthony Day and J.H. Dines, showcases an intricately detailed suit of engraved plate armour and horse barding from the reign of King Henry VIII in the 16th century. The knight, proudly wearing the armour, dons a bourgonet helmet adorned with drooping plumes, pauldrons, passe garde, sollerets, and carries a sword and axe. His horse, equally well-protected, boasts a chanfron with plumes, bridle, manifaire, poitrinal, croupiers, and flancois. The intricate engraving technique, popular during the Tudor period, is evident in the meticulously crafted designs on both the suit of armour and the horse barding. The knight's suit is a testament to the advanced metallurgy and craftsmanship of the time, with each plate meticulously engraved and fitted together to protect the wearer from harm. The horse barding, too, is a marvel of design and functionality, with protective pieces covering the horse's head, chest, and legs. This engraving is a captivating glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Tudor court, where knights and their horses were the epitome of power and prestige. The intricate details and vibrant colours bring the image to life, transporting us back to a time of chivalry, honour, and pageantry.
