EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the essence of a grand procession at Windsor Castle, showcasing an "Imaginary Composite Procession of the Knights of the Garter". Engraved by Marcus Gheeraerts the Elder in 1576, this coloured etching is a masterpiece from the 16th century English School. The image showcases a line-up of distinguished knights adorned in their regal attire. From left to right, we see Antony Browne, Viscount Montagu; Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester; George Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury; Ambrose Dudley, Earl of Warwick; Henry Carey, Baron Hunsdon; Francis Russell, Earl of Bedford; Sir Henry Sydney; and William Somerset, Earl of Worcester. Each knight exudes power and nobility with their beards and majestic hats. As they march through an Elizabethan arcade adorned with arches and royal crests, these knights embody chivalry and knighthood. The ceremony depicted here is filled with pomp and grandeur as they proudly display their insignia while wearing medieval-inspired garments. This artwork not only serves as a visual feast for admirers but also offers insight into the rich history surrounding this prestigious order. Preserved within the British Museum in London today, this print allows us to appreciate both its artistic brilliance and its historical significance.
