EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Elizabethan era as it was brought to life during the Royal Naval & Military Tournament at Olympia, London in 1912. The image showcases a grand Elizabethan pageant, with an archway adorned with banners and pennants serving as the backdrop. Riders on horseback, dressed in intricately designed and authentic Elizabethan uniforms, ride through the archway, their arms and accoutrements on full display. The Call to Arms was a popular attraction during the tournament, providing a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and heritage of Britain's past. The pageant is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and passion for historical reenactment that was prevalent during this time. The horses, too, are dressed in period-appropriate tack, adding to the overall authenticity of the scene. The photograph, taken by renowned artist Howard Elcock Matania, masterfully captures the spirit of the era and the excitement of the event. With the elegance of the riders and the grandeur of the archway, this image is a must-see for anyone interested in Elizabethan history, British royalty, or the pageantry of the past.
