are you sure it's a painting? It almost looks like a tapestry or a wood block carving.

I have no idea but I xcan tell you its from the High Renaissance period and it is of great detail compared to the Early Renaissance so this is one way to tell/ I think you might be able to google it or ask an art professor or an artist who enjoys this era, but if it were me I'd ask an art appraiser. That is what they specialize in. Hope this helps some.

Hi! This is not an 'old' painting. I believe it's no earlier than a 19th century (most likely later) illustration. It depicts the heraldry of Richard I, the Lionhearted (1189-1199), with the golden lions rampant. It almost looks like the work of the German illustrator, Gustav Adolf Closs (1864 -193
 who did historical illustration.. (see link)... but I cannot find your image. As there have been countless illustrations done of this era.. my suggestion would be to contact the website: (Review: September, 2005, ESSAY: 'Fighting Faiths: Rethinking the Crusades' by Daniel Johnson) which is illustrated by your picture (below)...... and simply ask them! I think they'll be thrilled that someone read their article I searched for an attribution but could find none. I wish I could have found it for you... but I hope that this helped!http://www.art.com/asp/sp-asp/_/PD--12743373/SP--A/IGID--1931292/First_Crusade_a_Cavalry_Charge_by_the_Knights_of_Saint_John_Against_the_Saracens.htm?sOrig=CRT&sOrigId=62077&ui=712FF7662C2E49F7A49419AD31F42BE7 http://www.aijac.org.au/review/2005/30-9/essay30-9.htmlhttp://aolsearch.aol.com/aol/imageDetails?invocationType=imageDetails&query=richard+lionhearted+illustration&img=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.marbleslawn.com%2FSH200-Richard.jpg&site=&host=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.marbleslawn.com%2Fmedievalhome.html&width=91&height=113&thumbUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fimages-partners-tbn.google.com%2Fimages%3Fq%3Dtbn%3AffoGF_tjx-9EYM%3Awww.marbleslawn.com%2FSH200-Richard.jpg&b=image%3Fquery%3Drichard%2Blionhearted%2Billustration%26page%3D5%26invocationType%3Dbottomsearchbox.image%26clickstreamid%3D-5768712703781997260 http://www.aijac.org.au/main-pages/contact.html |
