EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Pair of Flintlock Dueling Pistols with Case and Accessories, dating back to the late 18th century. Created by H. W. Mortimer & Sons, renowned English gunsmiths of the 18th Century, these pistols are an exquisite example of craftsmanship from that era. The pistols themselves are a sight to behold, with their ornate decoration and intricate engravings on the metalwork. The woodwork is beautifully crafted, adding elegance and sophistication to the overall design. These weapons were not only functional but also served as symbols of status and power during duels in that period. Accompanied by a case and various accessories made from wood, iron, brass, silver, lead, silk, cloth, and flint; this ensemble represents the complete arsenal required for a duel at that time. The incised decorations on the case further enhance its allure. Once owned by Rufus King and now part of the esteemed collection at New-York Historical Society in USA; this pair of pistols holds historical significance beyond its visual appeal. It serves as a testament to both artistry and weaponry during one of history's most intriguing periods. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' fine art reproduction expertise captured in this photo print; we can admire every detail without commercial use infringement concerns.
