Princess Balance Toy
In a classic one-day match, the
highlight of the annual jousting event
in the city of AngoulÍme, France, was when the Duc dAnjou
expertly picked
up the red silk scarf. The impact was hard to exaggerate; the
spectator
crowd collectively held its breath to observe the consequences.
Unique
conditions prevailed and all worked in the Ducs favor. A
bright sun,
the home fronts decisive victory. A bottle of excellent aged
claret next
to the Princess father, the King. The Duc and his Princess
became
famous in posterity as a romantic pair of courtly lovers.
His sword and her silk scarf are displayed in a dedicated
room of the National Treasury. 12.5 x 2.25 x 18.5"
