Sir Mador's Spear Broke, N. C. Wyeth King Arthur Framed Print (1917)
Sir Mador charges with momentum and confidence, and his spear breaks. The other man's holds. Banners and rules aside, a trial by combat still comes down to the moment of impact.
For someone who has taken a hard hit in public and lived to ride again.
Ready to hang: an 8 × 10 in framed print in a white or black wood frame. At home in a den or game room, or as a gift for a competitor or sports fan.
