I can't find anything after searching on here, albeit breifly, and Google doesn't throw up anything unless I'm putting the wrong search information, so I'm wondering if anyone (Hello there MajorB) can help with this question.
Did Edward wear gilt armour? Perrys figure, which I am using, seems to be so in their book and on the website, and the only thing I can find on Google is a reference to his ancestor the Black Prince who apparently did have a suit of gilded armour. So are there any references, is it tradition that the PoW wears gilded armour or is it speculation and painters just following suit simply because someone decided to paint his armour as gilded and put the figure on Perry's website? |
