EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable helmet from the 14th century, reminiscent of the one worn by the Black Prince in Canterbury Cathedral. However, what sets this particular piece apart is the addition of the Piece de Renfort on its left side. Published in 1868 as part of "The British Army: Its Origins, Progress and Equipment" this engraving provides a fascinating glimpse into medieval weaponry and armor. The helmet's intricate design reflects the craftsmanship of that era, with its reinforced plate offering enhanced protection for the wearer's head. As we delve into history through this image, we are transported to an age where knights donned such headgear as they ventured onto battlefields. Through this illustration, we can appreciate how warfare evolved during Europe's Middle Ages. The helmet serves as a symbol of both defense and status for those who wore it proudly. It represents an era when chivalry reigned supreme and honor was held dear. Preserved in a private collection today, this artifact stands as a testament to our rich historical heritage. Thanks to Ken Welsh's expert capture and Fine Art Finder's dedication to preserving artistry from centuries past, we can now admire this extraordinary piece from England's medieval times.
