Armour Battlefield Cent Centuries Fancy Helmets Intended Tournament 14th 15th
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 14th and 15th centuries and witness the grandeur of medieval military dress and armament. This stunning print from Mary Evans Prints Online showcases an exquisite collection of armour and helmets, meticulously crafted for the nobility of the era. During this period, military attire was not only functional but also a symbol of status and wealth. The more elaborate and intricately designed the armour, the greater the prestige of its owner. While these armours were primarily intended for use in tournaments rather than on the battlefield, they were no less impressive. Tournaments were organized events where knights and nobles would engage in mock battles, displaying their skills and prowess. The armour and helmets showcased in this print reflect the opulence and sophistication of these events. The intricate designs, rich colors, and ornate decorations are a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic abilities of the time. The armour in this print includes suits of plate armour, gorgets, and bascinets, all adorned with intricate engravings, embossing, and inlays. The helmets, too, are a sight to behold, with their elaborate crests, visors, and nasal guards. Each piece is a masterpiece in its own right, a fusion of form and function, beauty and protection. This print offers a unique glimpse into the world of medieval military dress and armament, a world of chivalry, honor, and grandeur. It is a reminder of a time when war was not just about winning battles, but also about displaying wealth, power, and prestige.
