EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate print, drawn and engraved by Leopold Massard for the publication "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days," offers a fascinating glimpse into the grandeur and intricacy of medieval courtly attire. The central figure in this image is a sergeant at arms, a high-ranking officer in the royal household responsible for maintaining order and enforcing the king's will. He is depicted in full armor, clad in chainmail and wearing a cabasset, a type of helmet that protected the neck and shoulders. A veil covers his helmet, signifying his status and rank. In his right hand, he holds a mace, a symbol of authority and power, while in his left, he grips a sword. Flanking the sergeant at arms are two royal guards, dressed in similar armor and bearing shields. Their stern expressions and alert posture convey their readiness to protect the king and the realm. The intricate details of their armor, from the embossed patterns to the meticulously rendered chainmail, are a testament to the skill and artistry of the engraver. This image provides a valuable record of medieval fashion and military culture, offering insights into the visual language of power and authority during the 13th century. The handcoloring adds an additional layer of richness and depth, bringing the figures and their surroundings to life in a vivid and captivating way.
