Destrier

22/6/2014

The  Destrier  the best-known war horse of the medieval era.  It carried knights in battles, tournaments and jousts. It was described by contemporary sources as the Great Horse, due to its significance.

I painted this Destrier in oils on canvas. As to the livery, this involved no end of colours to achieve the desired effect. The knight and his horse where in a joust at Blenleim Palace. The background to the painting is my imagination.
