 | English Armour c.1482 Ref: D5-15
A very distinctive English armour based primarily on the tomb effigy of Sir John Savile, at Thornhill in Yorkshire. Sir John died in 1482 and his armour shows many of the characteristics of other English armours of the period, but with subtle differences in details such as the fluting and cusping, especially on the pauldrons (shoulders). He wears a Yorkist livery collar of suns and roses, showing his allegiance and standing with the Yorkist King Edward IV.Reproduced on good quality heavyweight paper from a pencil drawing by Graham Turner.Overall print size A3 - 11.5"x 16.5" (30cm x 42cm) - image size approximately 10"x 14" (25cm x 35cm)click on image to enlargeThis original drawing is also available - CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS

 | English Knight c.1480 Ref: D4-15
English knight c.1480, based on the tomb effigies at All Saints Church, Herstmonceux, Sussex (see below right). This is an Italian export armour, basically following Italian forms, but adapted to suit the taste and fashions of its English owner. The effigies wear tabards, so Graham has recreated the appearance of the cuirass incorporating design elements from the rest of the harness; the distinctive fleur-de-lys from the demi-greave is repeated at the top of the plackart, which also incorporates some flutes, reflecting those that can be seen on the tassets - both features that appear on other armours of the period. The salet is topped with a gilded ball, as depicted in the well known Beauchamp Pageant, which is contemporary with the effigies.  Reproduced on good quality heavyweight paper from a pencil drawing by Graham Turner.Overall print size A3 - 11.5"x 16.5" (30cm x 42cm) - image size approximately 7"x 14" (18cm x 35cm)click on image to enlarge
