EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the lid of a casket that depicts the Castle of Love and Knights Jousting. Created by the French School in the 14th century, this intricately carved ivory masterpiece measures 11.8x25.2x12.9 cm and is currently housed at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA. The lid portrays scenes from medieval chivalric romances, capturing the essence of love and honor prevalent during that era. The castle stands tall as a symbol of romance and adventure, while knights engage in thrilling jousting tournaments below. Every detail on this casket lid tells a narrative of bravery and courtly love. The craftsmanship is truly remarkable, with delicate carvings depicting every aspect of knightly life - from their armor to their noble steeds. Although iron mounts believed to be added in the 19th century enhance its beauty further, it's important to note that they are not part of its original creation. This romantic scene transports viewers back to a time when castles were not just dwellings but symbols of grandeur and passion. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for an age where chivalry reigned supreme. Through this print by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder, we can appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such intricate carvings as well as gain insight into medieval society's ideals surrounding love and knighthood
