EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a late medieval broadsword that possesses a fascinating blend of Viking and aristocratic elements. The blade itself dates back to the mid-11th century, displaying the craftsmanship and ferocity associated with Viking weaponry. However, it is in the guard and pommel where we see the influence of the De Bohun family, Earls of Hereford and Essex during the 11th to 14th centuries. The sword proudly bears the arms of this noble lineage, symbolizing their power and prestige. It serves as a testament to their role in medieval society as well as their connection to British history. The intricate metalwork on both the guard and pommel further emphasizes its aristocratic origins. Notably, within one fuller of this remarkable weapon lies a runic inscription, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. This ancient script provides us with glimpses into past battles fought by those who wielded this very sword. As an artifact from a bygone era, this broadsword represents not only military might but also heraldic tradition. Its presence evokes images of knights in shining armor defending their lands with honor and chivalry. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' expert photography skills, we are able to appreciate every detail of this extraordinary piece. Whether you are fascinated by medieval history or simply captivated by exquisite craftsmanship, this print is sure to leave you enthralled.
