About the Item
19th-Century Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Medieval Horsemen with Festive Standards
This original hand-coloured lithograph, produced in 1842, provides a fascinating window into the ceremonial aspects of medieval European life. It comes from *Der Rittersaal: Eine Geschichte des Ritterthums*, published by Carl Hoffmann in Stuttgart, with artistic contributions by Friedrich Martin von Reibisch and historical commentary by Dr. Franz Kottenkamp. This important work sought to illustrate the customs, fashions, and material culture of knighthood and feudal society.
In this particular scene, two mounted figures guide their horses side-by-side, each carrying a tall, striped standard. These eye-catching standards, twisted in alternating bands of color, evoke the festive atmosphere of jousts, triumphal entries, and courtly celebrations. The men’s garments, rendered in rich reds, blues, and yellows, are skillfully highlighted by the lithographer’s hand-applied colors. From the sheen on the horses’ flanks to the subtle shading on the riders’ attire, every detail has been carefully captured, resulting in a lively and authentic portrayal.
The print remains in very good condition for its age. Minor creases and gentle toning at the edges attest to its genuine antiquity, yet do not diminish the clarity of detail or the vibrancy of the colors. Collectors of historical costume prints, medieval pageantry, or equestrian-themed art will find much to admire in this rare piece. Its combination of historical authenticity, fine craftsmanship, and visual appeal makes it a worthy addition to any distinguished collection.

Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Armoured Knight and Horse in Tournament Dress, 1842
Located in Langweer, NL
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...
