About the Item
19th-Century Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Ornate Parade and Tournament Armor
This striking hand-coloured lithograph showcases two magnificent suits of parade and ceremonial armor, reflecting the splendor and craftsmanship of European Renaissance armory. The lithograph originates from the 1842 publication *Der Rittersaal: Eine Geschichte des Ritterthums*, authored by Friedrich Martin von Reibisch and annotated by Dr. Franz Kottenkamp.
The plate depicts:
1. On the left, a highly decorated suit of 'tournament armor', adorned with scalloped red accents and intricate golden trim. The vibrant detailing along the pauldrons (shoulder guards), tassets (thigh protection), and cuirass (chest armor) highlights its ceremonial role in tournaments, where knights competed in displays of skill and pageantry.
2. On the right, a robust suit of 'parade armor', featuring a polished steel finish complemented by a flowing red sash. The sash introduces an element of grandeur and prestige, indicating that the armor was likely used in ceremonial contexts or worn by high-ranking individuals. The segmented design offers both functionality and an aesthetic appeal suited to parades or courtly displays.
The artist’s meticulous shading and careful application of colour emphasize the gleaming steel surfaces and ornate decorative details. The contrast between the dark armor and vivid red accents creates a visually dynamic composition, embodying the fusion of artistry and military tradition.
Condition:
The lithograph is in excellent condition, with clean margins, vibrant hand-colouring, and minimal age-related toning, enhancing its antique appeal.
This print is a must-have for collectors of medieval and Renaissance armor, European military history, or fine lithographic art. Its attention to historical detail and artistic execution make it an ideal piece for display in studies, libraries, or galleries dedicated to chivalry and knightly traditions.
