EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the formidable figure of Aylmer de Valence, Earl of Pembroke (1265?-1324), in all his medieval glory. Engraved by W. Maddocks and featured in Samuel Rush Meyrick's Ancient Armour publication from 1824, this colour lithograph captures the essence of a true warrior. Aylmer de Valence was known for his military prowess and played a significant role in history as he led Edward II's army against Bruce during the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. This image immortalizes him charging forward on horseback, brandishing his sword with determination and courage. The details are exquisite - from the striped lance held firmly in his hand to the intricate horse trappings adorned with regal embellishments. Aylmer dons an impressive helmet featuring a swan's head, symbolizing grace and elegance amidst the chaos of battle. Beyond being a fearsome soldier, Aylmer also served as an ambassador, representing England during diplomatic missions. His reputation as both a skilled fighter and diplomat is evident through this portrayal. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, we are transported back to an era where knights rode valiantly into battle atop their loyal steeds. It serves as a reminder of our rich historical past and pays homage to those who fought bravely for their beliefs. This print is not only visually stunning but also holds immense historical significance. It captures the spirit of chivalry
