A Tournament in the Middle Ages, c1884
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Thomas Strong Seccombe captures the exhilarating atmosphere of a medieval jousting competition. In this vibrant print, we are transported back to a time when chivalry and honor were held in high regard. The scene is filled with an array of colorful characters - knights clad in shining armor atop majestic horses, their caparisons adorned with intricate designs. The tension is palpable as these brave men prepare to face each other in combat, their faces determined and focused. Seccombe's artistic style adds a touch of comicality to the scene, bringing out the lighter side of this intense sport. The exaggerated expressions on some faces and the dust kicked up by galloping horses create a sense of movement and action. This print not only showcases Seccombe's talent as an artist but also serves as a metaphor for warfare during that era. It reminds us of the rivalry between nations and individuals striving for glory on horseback. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we can't help but be captivated by its charm and beauty. It transports us back to a time long gone yet still holds relevance today. "A Tournament in the Middle Ages" stands as both an homage to our past and a testament to human resilience throughout history.
