Knight on Horseback Brooch
$6.00
The original of this brooch, dated 1375-1425, is one of an enormous number of brooches representing armored men on horseback. Some may have been souvenirs bought at tournaments, but most seem to be merely decorative examples of a common artistic and pictorial motif – a meme, if you will.
