EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image transports us back in time to the early 1900s and the grandeur of the Horse Armoury within the historic Tower of London. The Tower of London, a fortress steeped in history, has been a significant part of England's defensive structure since its founding in the 11th century. The Horse Armoury, a key component of the Tower, was where the monarch's horses and their armoured riders were housed and maintained. In this photograph, an armoured soldier sits atop an armoured horse, both adorned in intricate and meticulously crafted protective gear. The horse's armour, made of interlinked rings of iron or steel, covers its entire body, providing essential protection against arrows and other projectiles. The rider's armour, consisting of a helmet, breastplate, gauntlets, and greaves, shields him from harm as well. The Edwardian era, represented here by this photograph taken in 1901, was a time of grandeur and opulence. The Horse Armoury, with its impressive collection of armoured horses and riders, was a testament to the military might and wealth of the British monarchy. The image captures the essence of this bygone era, offering a glimpse into a time when horses and their riders were the epitome of power and prestige on the battlefield. The Horse Armoury, with its rich history and stunning displays, continues to attract visitors to the Tower of London, allowing us to connect with the past and appreciate the evolution of military technology and tactics.
