About the Item
Title: 19th-Century Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Ornate Spiked and Circular Shields
Description: This exquisite hand-coloured lithograph features two striking examples of medieval shields, meticulously rendered with attention to detail and artistry. Sourced from *Der Rittersaal: Eine Geschichte des Ritterthums* (1842), authored by Friedrich Martin von Reibisch and Dr. Franz Kottenkamp, this print exemplifies the variety of shields used in both warfare and ceremonial functions.
1. Left Shield: A spiked rectangular shield with four prominent steel spikes projecting from each corner. The center showcases a heraldic crest of gold and blue stripes, possibly representing a noble family. The shield’s functional design, combined with its decorative heraldic emblem, highlights its dual role as a defensive weapon and a symbol of rank or lineage.
2. Right Shield: A circular shield with intricate floral engravings and a golden border. The design is dominated by a raised central boss, often used for deflecting blows. The elaborate scrollwork and golden embellishments suggest that this shield was used in ceremonial contexts or as part of a prestigious display.
The vibrant hand-colouring adds life to the shields, with striking gold, silver, and blue tones that emphasize their craftsmanship and elegance.
Condition: The print is in excellent condition with wide margins, clean edges, and vivid hand-colouring. Minor foxing, appropriate for its age, does not detract from the visual appeal.
This lithograph is ideal for collectors of heraldic art, medieval weaponry, or military history, offering a captivating representation of shields that once defined the warriors and nobility of the medieval world. Perfect for display in libraries, studies, or curated exhibitions.
