EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of William de Longuespee, the 3rd Earl of Salisbury, in all his medieval glory. Engraved by W. Maddocks and featured in Samuel Rush Meyrick's Ancient Armour publication from 1824, this color lithograph showcases the nobleman's striking presence. William de Longuespee was not just any ordinary earl; he was also the son of Henry II, making him a member of the esteemed Plantagenet dynasty. The coat of arms proudly displayed on his shield symbolizes his lineage and power. Dressed in intricately detailed chain mail armor, William exudes strength and resilience. His lion crest adorns his helmet, representing courage and regality. In one hand, he confidently wields a longsword - a weapon befitting a warrior like himself. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every line meticulously etched to bring out the texture and shine of William's armor. It transports us back to an era where chivalry reigned supreme. This print is part of The Stapleton Collection - an invaluable treasure that provides us with glimpses into history through artistry. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of the bravery and honor embodied by figures like William de Longuespee who shaped our past.
