This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval protection - a Brigandine Jacket dating back to the year 1560. Published in 1868 as part of "The British Army: Its Origins, Progress And Equipment" this illustration brings to life the rich history and craftsmanship of armor during the Middle Ages. Constructed from sturdy leather, this jacket is designed to safeguard its wearer against formidable weaponry. The steel plates embedded within its fabric provide an impenetrable defense, while the padded lining ensures both comfort and additional protection. Riveted together with precision, these oblong plates create a formidable barrier that shields the body from harm. As we gaze upon this artifact from centuries past, we are transported back to an era where battles were fought with valor and chivalry. This brigandine jacket stands as a testament to the ingenuity and skill of medieval artisans who crafted garments capable of preserving lives on treacherous battlefields. With its intricate design and attention to detail, it serves not only as functional armor but also as a work of art. Each stitch tells a story; each plate represents countless hours spent forging protective coverings for brave knights. Ken Welsh's expertly captured image allows us to appreciate the historical significance and beauty encapsulated within this sixteenth-century relic. It serves as a reminder that even in times long gone by, humans sought ways to shield themselves from danger using innovative means – forever leaving their mark on our collective memory.
