EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite effigy of William de Valence, the Earl of Pembroke, in all its glory. Crafted from copper-plated wood by the French School in the 13th century, this remarkable piece can be found within the Chapel of St. Edmund in Westminster, London. The effigy portrays a noble knight adorned in intricate armor and a Templar helmet, symbolizing his valiant crusader spirit. Every detail is meticulously carved to perfection, showcasing the skill and artistry of its creators. As I gaze upon this funereal masterpiece, I am transported back in time to an era filled with chivalry and honor. The solemnity that emanates from this tomb-like statue evokes a sense of reverence for its subject - a man who played a significant role in medieval history. It is fascinating to ponder how such craftsmanship has stood the test of time and continues to captivate viewers centuries later. This print allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also serves as a reminder of our connection to past generations.
