EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the gallant French knights of the 13th century, immortalized in a handcoloured lithograph by Villain. Clad in their formidable chainmail armor, these valiant warriors donned tunics and helmets adorned with their noble coat of arms. With lances held high and shields at the ready, they epitomize chivalry and honor. The image originates from a manuscript housed within the prestigious Rouen library, offering us a glimpse into the rich history of medieval France. The Chevaliers du XIIIe siècle depicted here are part of Horace de Viel-Castel's renowned Collection des costumes, armes et meubles pour servir à l'histoire de la France (Collection of costumes, weapons and furniture to be used in the history of France). This remarkable collection provides invaluable insights into ancient fashion trends, military attire, and cultural artifacts that shaped French society during this era. Through this beautifully illustrated lithograph, we can appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating such intricate armor but also gain an understanding of how it symbolized power and prestige among knights. As we delve into this mesmerizing piece from Fine Art Finder's Florilegius collection, let us immerse ourselves in the splendorous world of medieval France where bravery on horseback was celebrated as an art form.
