EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the thrilling atmosphere of a grand tournament held in London during the 1380s. The event, proclaimed across England, Scotland, Germany, Flanders, and France, was a testament to the chivalric spirit and martial prowess of the medieval period. Knights on horseback, dressed in their finest armor, prepare for a jousting competition. The knights, their faces hidden behind helmets, focus intently on their opponents, their horses prancing and snorting with anticipation. The crowd, a sea of colorful pavilions and banners, cheers and claps, adding to the excitement of the moment. The tournament was not only a display of military skill but also a social event where nobles and commoners alike came together to celebrate and revel in the pageantry and spectacle. The renowned chronicler, Jean Froissart, who documented the tournament in his "Chroniques," described it as a "marvelous sight to behold," with "knights from all corners of Christendom" participating. This print, a captivating glimpse into the past, offers us a window into the grandeur and excitement of medieval tournaments, a time when chivalry and horsemanship reigned supreme.
