EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the medieval ages, immersing us in a world of chivalry and warfare. From left clockwise, we are introduced to four formidable figures that embody the essence of protection and battle. At the forefront stands an archer, his bow drawn taut as he prepares to release an arrow with deadly accuracy. Behind him proudly waves the standard of Richard, Earl of Warwick, displaying his noble lineage and commanding presence on the battlefield. To his right stands a crossbow man, armed with a powerful weapon capable of piercing armor from great distances. And completing this circle is a pavoiser - a shield-bearer clad in sturdy armor holding up a large convex shield known as a pavise. The attention to detail in this illustration transports us into the heart of medieval warfare. The intricate costumes worn by these warriors reflect their social status while providing practicality for combat. Each weapon showcased represents different facets of 15th-century weaponry - from traditional archery skills passed down through generations to advancements like crossbows that revolutionized long-range attacks. As we gaze upon this historical image captured in 1868 by Ken Welsh, we can't help but marvel at how far warfare has evolved since then. Yet it also serves as a reminder of our fascination with these ancient battles and our admiration for those who fought bravely amidst chaos and uncertainty.
