1450 Attended Fresh Furnish Joust Knights Lances Meet Remount Required Shattered Tournament Tournaments Smith
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the intensity and excitement of a 15th century tournament, specifically the moment when two knights clash in a joust. The image, dated 1450, depicts the aftermath of their collision, with the lances of both knights, Sir Tournament (Smith) and his opponent, shattered and splintered on the ground. The knights, dressed in full armor and helmets, remain steadfast in their saddles, their determination unwavering despite the damage. Their squires, quick to attend to their masters, rush forward to furnish them with fresh lances, ready for the next pass. The squires' expressions convey a mixture of anxiety and pride, as they assist their knights in the high-stakes competition. If required, they will also help the knights to remount their horses, ensuring they are prepared for the next encounter. The scene at the tournament is one of both chaos and order, as the clash of steel and the shattering of lances are met with the swift and efficient responses of the squires. The energy and intensity of the moment are palpable, as the knights continue their battle, each vying for victory in this medieval display of martial prowess.
