Aimery de Guillaume Berard: A 13th Century French Knight in Full Armor This handcolored illustration, drawn and lithographed by Paul Mercuri with text by Camille Bonnard, depicts Aimery de Guillaume Berard, a renowned French knight from the 13th century. The intricately detailed image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the fashion and armor of the medieval period. Aimery de Guillaume Berard is shown wearing a suit of armor that includes a helmet adorned with fleur-de-lys, a symbol of the French monarchy. The chainmail undergarment, or tunic, is visible beneath the armor, adding an extra layer of protection. The knight's cuisses and greaves, which cover his thighs and lower legs, are also visible, as are his shoes and spurs. His shield, emblazoned with a cross, is held in his left hand, while his right hand grips a sword. A dagger and a misericorde, a type of small sword, are attached to his belt. His horse, dressed in a caparison, stands beside him, ready for battle. Aimery de Guillaume Berard was a condottiere, or military contractor, and commander. He was known for his bravery and military prowess, and this illustration captures the essence of a 13th century knight in all his glory. The intricate details of the armor, the realistic depiction of the horse, and the attention to historical accuracy make this a fascinating and educational piece of art. This image is from the book "Historical Costumes from the 12th to 15th Centuries" published by Levy Fils in Paris in 1860. It is a testament to the artistry and historical knowledge of the time, and a reminder of the rich history and culture of medieval Europe.
