Chevaliers – Right Side

This medieval wall hanging “Chevaliers (Right Side)” shows a knight or warrior from the Middle Ages. Here we see his characteristic helmet and shield and armor including chainmail, upon a horse dressed in attire matching that of the knight. The scene is decorated with plants and trees in the field he is riding through with his flag held high. Mounted knights were characteristic of knights since Roman and Greek times, and horsemanship as well as skill in battle were intricately linked to knighthood. This medieval wall tapestry “Chevaliers (Right Side)” is backed with a lining and has a tunnel for easy hanging.
