Chivalry Personified: A Knight in Full Regalia by George Barraud, 1911 This illustration, created by the skilled hand of George Barraud in 1911, portrays the epitome of chivalry and gallantry - a knight on horseback. The knight, clad in gleaming armor, carries a lance in his right hand and a shield adorned with his crest in his left. The intricately designed tapestry on the horse's trappings adds an air of regality and grandeur to the scene. The knight's determined expression and the proud stance of his steed convey a sense of readiness and valor. The illustration, titled "Chivalry" by its creator, George Barraud, is a testament to the romanticized ideals of the knightly code of conduct that dominated the European imagination during the Edwardian era of the early 20th century. Knights, with their unwavering loyalty, courage, and honor, represented the pinnacle of heroism and self-sacrifice. The intricate details of the knight's armor, the textures of the horse's mane and the tapestry, and the rich colors of the illustration transport us to a time when chivalry reigned supreme. This stunning piece of art, created over a century ago, continues to inspire awe and admiration, reminding us of the enduring power of the human spirit and the timeless appeal of the knightly ideal. Alternative Title: A Knight Out! Date: 1911 Creator: George Barraud (1855-1916), a prolific English illustrator and painter, is known for his detailed and evocative works. This illustration is a prime example of his skill and artistry, showcasing his ability to capture the essence of a bygone era.
