Description :

Pair of Vintage English-Style Brass Rubbings — Knight and Lady, Framed

Beautiful pair of vintage brass rubbings depicting a medieval knight and lady, rendered in gold tone on black paper. Each features ornate period details — the knight in armor standing over a lion, and the lady in traditional gown and veil — symbolizing nobility and devotion. Mounted under glass with black and gold double matting and coordinating black wood frames.

Details:

  • Medium: Metallic brass rubbing on black paper

  • Subject: Knight and Lady (pair)

  • Style: English Medieval Revival

  • Era: Mid-20th century (likely 1960s–1970s)

  • Frames: Matching black wood with gold inner trim, under glass

  • Condition: Excellent vintage condition; minor surface wear consistent with age

  • Dimensions (each): Approx. 20” H × 10” W

Historical Note:
Brass rubbings became popular in England during the 20th century, inspired by actual funerary brasses found in churches — which were used to commemorate knights, clergy, and noble families from the 13th–17th centuries.
