About the Item

Title: Knight of the Holy Virgin Mary in Winter Attire: 18th-Century Engraving Description: This captivating hand-colored engraving features a "Ritter der heiligen Jungfrau Maria in seinem Winterkleide" (Knight of the Holy Virgin Mary in Winter Attire). The knight is adorned in a rich white cloak trimmed with fur, symbolizing winter dress. The prominent red crosses, representing the knightly order's emblem, stand out against the subdued tones of his garments. His formal pose and flowing robes evoke a sense of dignity and reverence, befitting the religious devotion of his order. Accompanying the figure are detailed illustrations of the knight's insignias and emblems, showcasing the artistic precision and symbolic richness of this piece. These elements provide a visual insight into the ceremonial regalia of this spiritual order. This engraving belongs to Christian Friedrich Schwan's highly regarded work, "Abbildungen derjenigen Ritter-Orden welche eine eigene Ordenskleidung haben," published in Mannheim between 1779 and 1791. Schwan's series meticulously documents the uniforms and symbols of various knightly orders, making it an essential resource for understanding their historical and cultural significance. Condition: Excellent hand-coloring with some minor foxing and light toning typical for its age. The engraving has retained its sharpness and vibrancy, with all elements clearly visible. Frame Tip: Complement this artwork with a gold or gilt frame to highlight the richness of the winter cloak and insignias. A deep green or burgundy mat board will enhance the red crosses, creating a visually striking presentation. This rare and finely crafted engraving is a testament to the historical and artistic legacy of knightly orders. It is an ideal acquisition for collectors of religious or chivalric art, combining historical depth with aesthetic appeal.
