EDITORS COMMENTS
C15: Tournament Announced - A Grand Spectacle of Chivalry in Medieval France This evocative image transports us back to the 15th century, an era of knights, nobility, and grand tournaments. The scene unfolds in the heart of France, where the announcement of a tournament is about to commence. The herald, resplendent in his rich robes and tall hat, holds aloft a scroll, ready to read the proclamation to the assembled crowd. The trumpeter, with a proud and regal bearing, blows his horn, signaling the start of the festivities. The tournament was a significant event in medieval society, a time for knights to display their skill, courage, and honor. It was also an opportunity for the nobility to showcase their wealth and power. The tournaments were often held in large, open fields, with temporary structures erected for the occasion. Spectators would gather from far and wide to witness the thrilling displays of horsemanship, archery, and swordsmanship. The image captures the excitement and anticipation of the crowd, with onlookers dressed in their finest attire, eager to witness the spectacle. The knights, in their gleaming armor, prepare themselves for the competition, their horses tethered nearby. The atmosphere is one of pageantry, excitement, and camaraderie, a testament to the enduring spirit of chivalry in medieval France. This beautiful print, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of knights, tournaments, and grand spectacles. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that have shaped our world, and a testament to the enduring allure of the medieval period.
