EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving by Verico, after Biasioli, from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy in 1844, showcases a captivating variety of jousting shields and helmets from a medieval tournament. The intricate details of each piece reveal the dedication and craftsmanship that went into creating these essential items for the knights participating in the chivalric event. The shields, adorned with heraldic designs and geometric patterns, are a testament to the knights' individual identities and allegiances. Some shields feature the iconic crosses and fleurs-de-lis, while others display more unique and elaborate emblems. The shields' sizes and shapes vary, with some being round and others being more oblong, reflecting the different tactics and strategies employed during the joust. The helmets, equally impressive, range from frogmouth designs with open visors to solid visors that only reveal the knight's eyes. The helmets' intricate details, such as the flowing horsehair crests and ornate decorations, add to their grandeur and showcase the knights' commitment to the romantic and noble ideals of the medieval period. The tilt, or jousting tournament, was a significant event in medieval society, representing a display of skill, strength, and chivalry. The knights, dressed in their armour and bearing their distinctive shields and helmets, would engage in a series of contests, testing their horsemanship, weaponry, and courage. This engraving captures the essence of that time, transporting us back to an era of romance, honour, and knightly prowess.
