The Middle Ages (100) : Combat instructor
This series is an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in the Middle Ages.
When a knight was too old to go to war and to fight, then the best of them became combat instructor to train new candidate knights.
The inscription 'aede regi' on his helmet means 'the temple of the King' and was exclusively reserved for meritorious ex-crusaders.
Photographed at medieval festival of castle Franchimont (Belgium)

Great shot of this armoured knight. I think maneuvering in that metal outfit must've been quite an effort. So strange and colourful this part of history was, yet, I believe it must've been difficult times to live in tooDeryck

Wunderschönes Foto LG NormaAngelika El. 28/01/2016 16:05
Oh, er sieht ganz großartig aus!!! Und da die Ausbildung der Knappen ja sehr wichtig war, genoss so ein Ausbilder sicher immer noch großes Ansehen!
Wieder ein herrliches Motiv in deiner Mittelalter-Serie!
LG! a.

it looks like this knight means business - an excellent portrait, and interesting to know that the retired crusaders would still train new knights !!!greetings, Adele

The trainer should make a leap into the air by the number 100! ;)))Joking aside, quite outstanding you've captured the concentrated face.
Very beautiful scene in the best light and fine colors!
