EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval protection - a Sabaton or Solleret dating back to A. D. 1400. Published in 1868 as part of "The British Army: Its Origins, Progress And Equipment" this illustration transports us to the Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into the formidable armor worn by knights. Crafted from sturdy steel, this foot covering served as an essential component of a knight's armoured ensemble. With its intricate design and meticulous attention to detail, the Sabaton or Solleret provided both practicality and style on the battlefield. As we admire this ancient artifact, we can't help but imagine the brave warriors who once donned these protective boots. The rowel-spur attached to the heel hints at their mounted prowess and reminds us that these knights were not only skilled with weapons but also expert equestrians. Intriguingly, this image invites us to explore not just the physical aspects of medieval warfare but also its rich history and weaponry. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity in creating defensive gear that could withstand even the harshest blows. Ken Welsh's masterful capture allows us to appreciate how far our understanding of armor has evolved over time while reminding us of its enduring significance in military history. This print is more than just an illustration; it is an invitation to delve into centuries past and immerse ourselves in tales of chivalry and valor.
