EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a charging knight from the 12th and 13th centuries, meticulously depicted in intricate detail through a beautiful copperplate engraving by J. Hamilton, taken from Francis Grose's "Military Antiquities respecting a History of the English Army," published in London in 1812 by Stockdale. The knight is magnificently armored, clad in a hawberk, a type of chainmail armor that covers the chest, arms, and back, but leaves the sides open. His flat helmet, with a narrow visor and no nasal guard, sits securely on his head, while his shin armour jambesons protect his legs. The knight's steed, adorned with a chanfron and scale mail, charges forward, its hooves poised to strike the ground. The knight holds a lance in his right hand, its tip pointed towards the unseen enemy, while his left hand grips the heater shield, its rounded shape offering protection against arrows and other projectiles. The knight's determination and readiness for battle are palpable, encapsulating the spirit of the medieval warrior. Francis Grose, a renowned antiquarian and military historian, meticulously documented various aspects of military history, including armor and weaponry, in his "Military Antiquities." This engraving is a testament to the meticulous research and attention to detail that Grose brought to his work, providing a fascinating glimpse into the armor and weaponry of the English army during the 12th and 13th centuries.
