EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the annals of medieval England, Aubrey (Alberic) De Vere, the 2nd Earl of Oxford, is depicted in full regalia, flanked by his consort, Adelizia. Dating back to the year 1215, this print showcases the Earl in his suit of mail, complete with helmet, sword, and other weapons of the military class. The Earl of Oxford was an influential figure during this period, serving as Lord High Chamberlain of England, a position that placed him at the heart of the English court. The Earl's imposing presence is accentuated by the intricate details of his armor, each link meticulously crafted to provide both protection and style. His helmet, adorned with a distinctive crest, sits atop his head, while his sword, a symbol of power and authority, hangs at his side. Adelizia, his consort, stands beside him, her elegant gown and veil contrasting sharply with the Earl's militaristic attire. Her presence serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between the military and the domestic spheres in medieval society. This striking image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when knights and ladies, lords and ladies-in-waiting, roamed the halls of English castles and palaces. The Earl of Oxford, with his fierce determination and regal bearing, embodies the spirit of the medieval warrior-nobleman, while Adelizia represents the grace and elegance of the medieval court. Together, they serve as a testament to the rich history and culture of medieval England.
