"Unveiling the Timeless Artistry: Armoured Clothing through Centuries" Step back in time as we witness Archduke Maximilian of Austria's awe-struck visit to an armourer, captured beautifully in an engraving. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail showcased in Mr Edwin J Bretts Collection of Armour at the Tudor Exhibition is truly remarkable. Delving deeper into history, explore the military habits of the 15th and 16th centuries depicted vividly in a colored engraving. Feel the valor and strength exuded by Richard the Lionheart, portrayed with striking colors in a lithograph. Journeying further, marvel at the evolution through a captivating colored engraving showcasing its splendor during the 16th century. Thomas Gifford of Leckhampton's contribution to this art form cannot be overlooked. Venturing beyond battles and armor, discover "The Divine Eros Defeats the Earthly Eros, " an oil on canvas masterpiece from c. 1602 that showcases armoured clothing as a symbol of power and protection against worldly desires. Witness Joan of Arc, also known as Jeanne d'Arc or la Pucelle d'Orleans, clad in her iconic attire that embodies courage and resilience. The Italian military costume from the 15th century adds another layer to our understanding of this fascinating era. Emperor Maximilian I of Germany takes center stage as he unseats his opponent during a jousting match—a testament to chivalry immortalized within an unpublished book glorifying his noble deeds around c. 1515. Stepping away from battle scenes momentarily, immerse yourself in "The Espolio, " an oil on panel painting capturing The Disrobing of Christ between 1577-79—an artwork where even amidst vulnerability, armoured clothing serves as a reminder of faith's shield against adversity.
