EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a knight on horseback, adorned in a magnificent helmet and hauberk, as depicted in an 11th-century psalter. The intricate details of the knight's armor and his noble steed are brought to life through the handcoloured lithograph by Villain. Alongside this valiant warrior stands Geoffrey V, also known as "the Handsome" or "the Fair" who proudly holds a shield emblazoned with four lions rampant. Geoffrey V was not only the Count of Anjou but also held the title of Duke of Normandy during his reign from 1113 to 1151. The image is part of Horace de Viel-Castel's Collection des costumes, armes et meubles pour servir à l'histoire de la France (Collection of costumes, weapons and furniture to be used in the history of France). This collection serves as a valuable resource for studying French fashion and costume throughout history. With its rich historical significance, this handcoloured lithograph transports us back to medieval times when knights were revered for their chivalry and bravery on the battlefield. It offers a glimpse into ancient history through its depiction of illuminated manuscripts such as psalters. This remarkable artwork captures both the beauty and power associated with knights in armor while highlighting important figures like Geoffrey V within French history. Its inclusion in Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows art enthusiasts to appreciate these significant cultural artifacts without commercial use considerations.
