EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a collection of ecus, or coats of arms, belonging to the German nobility during the 15th century. The image is taken from Loredan Larchey's Ancient Equestrian Armorials of the Order of the Golden Fleece and Europe in the 15th Century, published in Paris in 1890. The ecus are intricately designed, featuring various heraldic symbols, charges, and mottoes. Some of the shields display the emblems of the Order of the Golden Fleece, a prestigious and influential chivalric order founded by Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy in 1430. The ecus in this print are rich in history and symbolism, reflecting the power, status, and lineage of the German nobility during the medieval period. The chromolithograph, created using a printing process that involves the transfer of an image from a stone or metal plate to paper, showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors of each coat of arms. This beautiful and historical artwork is a testament to the rich heraldic traditions of the German nobility in the 15th century and is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of heraldry and medieval history.
