Small authentic antique engraving dated 1845, entitled: “Olifant des Chevaliers (cabinet of M.le Duc de Luynes)”. Guaranteed authenticity. Do not hesitate to ask us for a certificate of authenticity by message when ordering. It illustrated an old work on the history of France (11th century). The scene consists of the detail of an olifant, a kind of ivory horn used in the Middle Ages, decorated with complex designs including animals and people. This object comes from the cabinet of M.le Duc de Luynes, illustrating the artisanal know-how of the 11th century in France. It is notable for its rich sculpted decorations which evoke the chivalric universe and animal symbolism in medieval art. This engraving highlights French historical heritage, probably located in a noble region such as Ile-de-France.
