About the Item

Title: Original Hand-Coloured Knightly Combat Print from 'Der Rittersaal', Stuttgart, 1842 Description: This striking original hand-coloured lithograph originates from 'Der Rittersaal: Eine Geschichte des Ritterthums' (The Knights' Hall: A History of Chivalry), published in Stuttgart in 1842 by Carl Hoffmann. The highly detailed and vibrantly coloured print depicts two fully-armoured knights engaged in a dramatic polearm duel. Each figure is meticulously rendered, showcasing the intricate designs of their plate armour, feathered crests, and period-accurate weaponry, likely inspired by late Medieval or Renaissance tournaments. The artistic execution is attributed to Friedrich Martin von Reibisch, with historical contributions by Dr. Franz Kottenkamp, an expert in knightly traditions and customs. The print perfectly reflects the era's fascination with chivalry, knighthood, and the pageantry of European martial history. Condition: The print is exceptionally well-preserved, with rich, vibrant hand-colouring (partly heightened with gold) that highlights the knights’ vivid plumes, clothing accents, and polished steel armour. The paper has a warm patina consistent with its age, and only minimal signs of wear are present, enhancing its antique character. This piece is ideal for collectors of historical prints, lovers of chivalric art, or enthusiasts of Medieval history. It is a stunning visual testimony to 19th-century Romanticism’s reverence for the past and would make a distinguished addition to any curated display or gallery.
