EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the military costume of a Norman soldier (or Saxon) from the 12th century. The image is derived from a manuscript found in England, offering us a glimpse into the attire and weaponry of medieval warriors. The soldier stands tall and proud, adorned in a tunic with sleeves that reaches his knees. His legs are covered by stockings, while sturdy shoes protect his feet on the battlefield. Every aspect of his outfit serves both practical and protective purposes. Armed to defend himself and his comrades, he carries an imposing lance held firmly in one hand. A buckler shield rests on his other arm, ready to deflect any incoming attacks. At his side hangs a sword, symbolizing strength and valor. Completing this formidable ensemble is an intricately designed helmet that shields him from harm while instilling fear in adversaries. Leopold Massard's masterful handcolored copperplate engraving brings this historical figure to life with vibrant hues and meticulous attention to detail. This artwork was part of "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days" published by Massard and Mifliez in Paris during 1834. This print not only captures the essence of medieval warfare but also pays homage to the rich history preserved within manuscripts like these. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' bravery and their dedication to protecting what they held dear.
