Man at arms with a standard, 1483. The armour on the left arm has a pauldron with raised pass-guard, while the right arm has a plain pauldron and a large pointed elbow guard. The tuiles are shaped differently, plate gauntlets and pointed sollerets. The inside of the shield shows the straps and the word Anime. The standard is embroidered with St. George and the Dragon with the motto of the Knights of the Garter. Handcoloured lithograph by Maddocks after an illustration by Meyrick from Sir Samuel Rush Meyrick's A Critical Inquiry into Antient Armour, John Dowding, London, 1842.
