EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts a medieval ceremony of the creation of a knight, as illustrated by Verico after P.L. Sabatelli in Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy, in 1844. The ceremony, steeped in chivalry and romance, unfolds as a king bestows knighthood upon a devoted and worthy warrior. The king, seated majestically upon his throne, holds a gleaming sword aloft, poised to touch the warrior's shoulders, symbolizing the granting of knighthood. The squire, clad in a simple tunic and hose, kneels before his monarch, his eyes fixed on the ground in humble reverence. The warrior's hands are bound behind his back, signifying his submission and readiness for the transformation. Two pages, dressed in ornate livery, flank the scene. One page holds the warrior's spurs, a symbol of the horseman's status, while the other proudly displays the knight's coat of arms on a shield. The intricate design of the coat of arms, adorned with heraldic symbols and motifs, represents the knight's lineage, achievements, and allegiances. The atmosphere of the ceremony is filled with a sense of solemnity and awe, as the weight of the knightly code of honour and duty settles upon the new knight. The handcoloured copperplate engraving, with its intricate details and rich colours, masterfully captures the essence of this momentous occasion in the annals of medieval history.
