EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the prestigious Order of the Garter, one of the oldest and most revered chivalric orders in England. Established in 1348 by King Edward III, this order is steeped in history and tradition, symbolizing honor, loyalty, and courage.
The intricate insignia of the Order of the Garter is beautifully depicted in this image, showcasing a blue garter adorned with a gold buckle and inscribed with the motto "Honi soit qui mal y pense" which translates to "Shame on him who thinks evil of it." This emblematic piece represents the elite group of knights chosen by the monarch for their exceptional service and contributions to society.
The heraldic design featured on this print reflects centuries-old customs and values that continue to be upheld by members of this esteemed order. The rich symbolism embodied within each element serves as a reminder of the noble ideals that have guided knights throughout history.
As we gaze upon this historical artifact from 1858 captured by Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to an era where bravery and gallantry were celebrated virtues. This exquisite portrayal invites us to appreciate not only the artistry behind these ancient symbols but also the enduring legacy they represent.
