This print showcases the distinguished figure of De Vere, Earl of Oxford, dating back to the year 1280. Captured by the talented Samuel Rush Meyrick in his renowned work "Ancient Armour" this color lithograph from 1824 exudes a sense of medieval grandeur and historical significance. The image portrays De Vere adorned in an exquisite coat of arms, symbolizing his noble lineage and chivalrous spirit.
