EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving transports us back to the 15th century, immersing us in the grandeur and spectacle of a medieval tournament. The print depicts mounted knights in full armor, parading through the Castle of Luxembourg during a procession for Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I. Led by drummers and trumpeters adorned with banners, these jousting knights exude power and elegance as they prepare for battle. The attention to detail in this illustration is remarkable; every plate of armor shines brightly under the sun's rays, showcasing the craftsmanship that went into creating such intricate armoured clothing. The mesh size on their helmets adds an extra layer of protection while maintaining visibility for combat. As we gaze upon this historical scene, we are reminded of the rich history and tradition surrounding tournaments during this era. Knights would compete against each other to showcase their skill and bravery, entertaining spectators from all walks of life. This particular print comes from Alexandre de Laborde's Voyage pittoresque en Autriche published in 1822. It was later included in Giulio Ferrario's renowned work Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World in Florence, 1844. Through this artwork by Migliavacca, we are transported back to a time when chivalry reigned supreme and armored soldiers were revered as heroes. This print serves as a window into history—a glimpse into an awe-inspiring world that continues to captivate our imagination today.
