EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Two knights at a tournament" takes us back in time to the era of chivalry and honor. The plate is extracted from the renowned book "A History of the Development and Customs of Chivalry" by Dr. Franz Kottenkamp, published in 1842. In this vibrant lithograph created by Friedrich Martin von Reibisch, we witness a thrilling scene unfolding before our eyes. Two valiant knights clad in magnificent armor are engaged in a running duel on horseback. Their decorative helmets gleam under the sunlight as they fiercely joust with their lances. The horses carrying these noble warriors proudly display their coat of arms on protective cloths draped over their bodies, symbolizing loyalty and allegiance. These majestic creatures gallop with strength and grace, adding an element of wild beauty to this historical spectacle. As we delve into this image further, it becomes evident that every detail has been meticulously captured – from the intricate design of the knights' armor dating back to 1482 to the powerful swing of their clubs aimed at each other's shields. This artwork not only showcases medieval combat but also highlights humanity's fascination with animals throughout history. It serves as a reminder that even amidst fierce battles and tournaments, nature remains an integral part of our lives - whether through wildlife or farm animals like these gallant steeds. Preserved within private collections for centuries, this extraordinary piece now finds its place among Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection for all
