EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking handcolored copperplate print depicts a Knight Templar in combat uniform from the 13th century, as illustrated in Leopold Massard's "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days." The Knight Templar, a prominent military-religious order founded in the 12th century, is shown wearing a full suit of armor that includes a helmet with a distinctive nasal guard, a bonnet or coif beneath, a hooded cape, a chainmail hauberk or tunic, and a surcoat bearing the iconic red cross of the Order. He is armed with a lance and a buckler, a small round shield used for defensive maneuvers. The intricate details of the armor and the vibrant colors of the print bring to life the image of a formidable and devout warrior of the Middle Ages. The meticulous engraving and handcoloring techniques employed by Massard and his team capture the essence of the Knight Templar's iconic appearance and the grandeur of the medieval era. This print is a testament to the rich history and enduring legacy of the Knights Templar, whose influence can still be felt in the present day.
