This beautiful Limoges enamel plaque depicts a knight in full armour. He is portrayed turning towards the viewer, as though he is about to unsheathe his sword. The knight stands before classical white stone fluted columns and heavy velvet curtains, which are drawn back. He wears sumptuous, brightly-coloured clothes.
The plaque is displayed in a gilt bronze frame. This features braided and foliate borders, and its crest rail is decorated with swags, scrolled fruiting vines and wreaths.
