1387 Brass Canterbury Chaucer Horse Back Knight Squires Steed Tale Tales
EDITORS COMMENTS
The Squire's Tale: A Medieval Knight's Journey, as Illustrated in this Historic Print This print, titled 'The Squires Tale: There came a knight upon a steed of brass,' transports us back to the medieval era, a time of chivalry, honor, and adventure. The image, published by Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the rich history and enduring allure of the tales penned by the great English poet Geoffrey Chaucer in the late 14th century. In this print, we see a gallant knight mounted on a steed of brass, an unusual and striking contrast to the traditional horses of flesh and blood. The knight, clad in full armor, gazes intently into the distance, his expression a blend of determination and anticipation. His steed, an intricately detailed creation of brass, reflects the advanced metallurgy and craftsmanship of the time. The Squire's Tale is one of the many stories in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, a collection of 24 stories that chronicles a journey of a group of pilgrims from Southwark to Canterbury Cathedral. The Squire's Tale, in particular, tells the story of a knight who embarks on a quest to avenge the death of his lady love. This print, circa 1387, is a beautiful representation of the tales that have captivated readers for centuries. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the story to life, transporting us back to a time when knights and their steeds roamed the land, seeking honor and adventure. The print, with its historical significance and artistic merit, is an invaluable addition to any collection of medieval literature or art. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and enduring allure of the tales penned by Chaucer and the medieval world they depict.
