EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 16th century, immersing us in the grandeur of an Elizabethan jousting tournament. The woodcut image, originally featured in the Chronicles of England by Holinshed in 1577, captures a moment filled with chivalry and excitement. In this scene, we witness knights clad in shining armor astride their majestic horses, ready to engage in a thrilling display of skill and bravery. The atmosphere is electric as spectators eagerly watch from the sidelines, anticipating every move made by these valiant warriors. Amongst the notable figures depicted are Edward Erle of Orforde, Charles Howard, and Sir Henry Lee - all esteemed individuals who were renowned for their prowess on horseback. Each knight holds tightly onto his lance, prepared to charge forward with unwavering determination. The attention to detail evident in this woodcut is remarkable; it transports us into a world where honor was paramount and jousting served as both sport and spectacle. The composition beautifully captures the dynamic nature of this medieval contest - showcasing not only physical strength but also strategic finesse. As we gaze upon this historic artwork preserved within a private collection today, we can't help but be reminded of how art has the power to transcend time. It allows us to appreciate centuries-old traditions that continue to captivate our imagination even today.
