EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and tradition of the Lord Mayor's Show in 1844. The procession, held annually to celebrate the inauguration of the Lord Mayor of the City of London, showcases ancient knights adorned in authentic steel suits worn by great men throughout our country's history. The first group features Sir Henry Lee's remarkable suit, originally donned as Master of the Horse in 1570. This fine specimen exemplifies strong plate armor, accompanied by his sword and shield carried by two cavaliers from Charles I's era. The second group presents a nobleman from James I's time encased in plate armor with epaulets on his joints. Accompanying him are knights from Elizabethan times clad in half armor. Published in "Illustrated London News" during the nineteenth century, this engraving transports us back to an era filled with chivalry and valor. It depicts horsemen riding gallantly through the streets of London, embodying a sense of pride for their city and its traditions. Stephen Sly skillfully captured this momentous event that symbolizes British heritage and culture. Through this photograph, we can appreciate not only the craftsmanship behind these suits but also gain insight into historical warfare practices. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a reminder of our rich past while honoring those who have come before us - valiant knights who played significant roles within our nation's history.
