Information on “The Accolade” painting by Edmund Blair Leighton?
Is there a story behind the painting? anything would help. I am doing a report and can hardly find any info online… thanks :]
Leighton was interested in depicting medieval scenes. I don’t think this one has any special significance beyond depicting the ceremony of the accolade. This is described at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accolade
See description worn by the woman conferring the knighthood – it is called a Bilaut see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bliaut
