A propos de cet article

Medieval Knight in Chainmail with Bascinet and Sword, circa 13th Century This striking antique costume print, labeled MCCC. No 94. and published in 1845 in the renowned series *Costumes Historiques des XIIIe, XIVe et XVe Siècles*, captures the martial elegance of a 13th-century European knight dressed for battle. His attire is a detailed reconstruction of early medieval armor, rendered in vibrant color and precise engraving. The figure stands poised with a broad, straight sword in one hand and a small heater-style shield in the other. He is fully encased in chainmail ? visible at the arms, legs, and beneath his surcoat ? signifying the dominant armor style before the widespread use of plate armor. Over the chainmail, he wears a purple surcoat cinched at the waist by a simple belt, which adds color and distinction, likely representing heraldic identity or allegiance. Most notable is the rare conical helmet or early bascinet, shown here with an angular faceplate featuring a diagonal stripe of yellow and blue and a series of ventilation holes. This distinct coloration and style are highly characteristic of transitional knightly armor in the late 13th to early 14th century, blending utility with symbolic function. His shield, held firmly in a combat-ready stance, is green with reinforced studs along the grip edge, suggesting both practical and ornamental value. This costume study is both elegant and restrained, offering a powerful view of the knightly ideal: disciplined, stoic, and ready for close combat. It is a fine representation of pre-Crusade or early Crusader attire, especially relevant to collectors of medieval military iconography or costume history. Condition Very good condition overall. Light scattered foxing is visible in the outer margins, with a few small age spots in the lower right. The image area is clean, with colors crisp and well-preserved. Plate impression is strong. Framing suggestions This print displays beautifully in a narrow black or bronze frame with a neutral archival mat. For a dramatic effect, consider mounting it against a deep wine red or dark forest green mat to echo the shield's tone. Ideal for libraries, studies, or themed collections on medieval warfare or chivalry.…
