About the Item
Magnificent Jousting Tournament Print with Hand-Coloured Knights and Horses, 19th c.
This striking original hand-coloured print, likely created in the mid-19th century, captures the grandeur and spectacle of a medieval jousting tournament in vivid detail. Two armored knights, poised in combat, charge toward each other on richly adorned steeds. Their lances clash mid-air, perfectly capturing the dynamic energy and drama of the tournament. The horses, draped in vibrant caparisons—one in brilliant gold with delicate silver motifs, the other in deep magenta with intricate golden scrollwork—reflect the opulence and pageantry of medieval chivalry.
Rendered with exceptional precision, the print showcases the knights' armor, complete with ornate feathered crests, intricate patterns, and gilded highlights that bring a sense of realism and artistry to the scene. The hand-colouring enhances the visual appeal, with fine shading and a palette of bold, rich hues that emphasize the composition's elegance.
Produced by skilled artisans of the 19th century, such prints were often part of larger works on armory, tournaments, or historical costume, valued for their detailed craftsmanship. The print is in good condition for its age, with only minor imperfections expected in a piece of this period, such as light wear along the edges.
This rare and beautifully executed artwork is ideal for collectors of historical prints, medieval enthusiasts, or those seeking a distinguished and colorful addition to their collection. It serves as both a testament to artistic skill and an enduring window into the splendor of knightly tournaments.

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.
