Eglinton Tournament 8: A Grand Medieval Spectacle - 30 August 1839 This evocative photograph captures a scene from the Eighth Eglinton Tournament, held on 30 August 1839. With an estimated crowd of 100,000 spectators, this event was one of the most popular and extravagant displays of medieval pageantry in Victorian England. Among the throngs of onlookers were 2000 personal guests of the Earl of Eglinton, all dressed in authentic medieval attire. The Earl, known for his passion for chivalry and the Middle Ages, spared no expense in creating an authentic medieval atmosphere. This grand staircase, leading to the ballroom, is just one of the many lavish arrangements that added to the scene's enchantment. The military-inspired decor, with its banners and pennants, further emphasizes the tournament's medieval theme. The Eglinton Tournaments were a series of medieval-themed events held annually between 1839 and 1842, attended by the aristocracy and the general public. The tournaments included jousting, archery, and other chivalric games, as well as elaborate feasts and balls. The Earl's commitment to authenticity extended to the construction of a temporary castle, complete with a drawbridge and moat, which served as the backdrop for the festivities. This photograph offers a glimpse into the grandeur and excitement of the Eglinton Tournament 8, a unique moment in Victorian history when the past was brought to life for all to enjoy.
