Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Armoured Knight and Horse in Tournament Dress, 1842

About the Item

Title: Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Armoured Knight and Horse in Tournament Dress Description: This exquisite hand-coloured lithograph presents a fully armoured knight mounted on a similarly armoured horse, highlighting the grandeur of medieval tournament culture. Drawn from *Der Rittersaal: Eine Geschichte des Ritterthums* (1842) by Friedrich Martin von Reibisch and Dr. Franz Kottenkamp, the plate exemplifies the craftsmanship of tournament armor and equestrian regalia. The knight is clad in articulated plate armor, intricately engraved and polished to perfection, reflecting the martial prowess and status of a noble warrior. He holds a ceremonial poleaxe, often seen in jousts or tournaments as both a practical weapon and a symbol of chivalry. His plumed helmet, adorned with vibrant red and yellow feathers, adds an element of spectacle befitting a medieval tournament. The horse is draped in a richly patterned caparison, a cloth covering adorned with intricate geometric designs, likely symbolizing the knight's heraldic identity. The ornate horse armor, including a chamfron to protect the head, demonstrates the importance of both utility and display in tournament attire. This detailed lithograph captures the essence of European chivalric tradition, where knights showcased their skill, honor, and social prestige in elaborate tournaments. The vibrant colours and fine detailing make this a compelling piece of historical art, offering a window into the pageantry of the medieval era. Condition: This print is in excellent condition, with vibrant colouring, clean margins, and sharp details. Ideal for collectors of historical equestrian art, medieval military history, or fans of chivalric tournaments, this lithograph makes a striking display piece.

PGA Golf Tournament Autographed Lithograph, Certified Sports Memorabilia
Located in Miami, FL
Autographed PGA Golf Tournament 1991 - Crooked Stick Golf Course that was held in Carmel, Indiana. Titled "The Cinderella Story". This lithograph is autographed by both the Legendary Golf Champion John Daly and pencil signed by the artist Donald Voorhees, Artist. Certified. The 1991 PGA Championship was the 73rd PGA Championship, held August 8–11 at Crooked Stick Golf Club in Carmel, Indiana, a suburb north of Indianapolis. John Daly won the first of his two major titles, three strokes ahead of runner-up Bruce Lietzke. Daly, age 25, was quite arguably the most unforeseen major champion in modern history. He was the ninth alternate who only qualified after several others pulled out of the tournament. Nick Price withdrew for the birth of his first child and Daly hired his caddy, Jeff "Squeaky" Medlin. Daly's outgoing personality and "grip it and rip it" style of play made him an instant fan favorite. The PGA Championship was his first tour victory. This wonderfully collectible lithograph would make a great gift. Donald Voorhees has been recognized from coast to coast for his outstanding contribution to art and is the recipient of over 100 awards from such prestigious organizations as the Hudson Valley Art Association, the Salmagundi Club of New York City and the New Jersey Water Color Society. He has been cited for his work by the State of New Jersey. The artist's works have been shown in museums throughout the country, including the Frye Museum, Seattle, Washington; the Edward Dean Museum, Cherry Valley, California; the Central Museum of Wyoming; and the Martello Museum, Key West, Florida. He has exhibited with the American Watercolor Society, Allied Artists, Knickerbocker Artists, New Jersey Water Color Society, Hudson Valley Art Association, Salgamundi Club, National Academy of Design, and the National Art Club. His works are owned by many banks, corporations and public institutions througout the country including Sun Oil, Gannett Publications, Citibank, Hertz, Pfizer Drug and Bethlehem Steel. Prints from his Americana Series hang in schools, government offices and the Freedom Foundation at Valley Forge. His painting "Beckoning Still" is in the collection of former President Reagan...
