Accolade (by Edmond Blair Leighton) Paper Plates
This design features a painting by the English artist Edmund Blair Leighton (1852–1922). It depicts a knight in chainmail on his knees in front of a beautiful princess as she ennobles him with her sword. She is resting her sword on his shoulder as a symbol of his honor. There is an elegant silver throne behind the lady for him to sit on after the ceremony. A crowd of onlookers can be seen in the corner; they are watching the knight receive his honor with awe and reverence. The knight is clasping his hands together in prayer as he kneels in front of the princess, who is wearing a long dress. She has red hair and she is wearing a crown on her head. The knight has placed his metal helmet on the floor beside him. The original artwork was painted by Edmund Blair Leighton in 1901.
