Late 18thC / Early 19thC English Antique Wood Carving Depicting a Knight on Horseback

Late 18thC / Early 19thC English Antique Wood Carving Depicting a Knight on Horseback

A lovely late 18thC / early 19thC English antique carved panel in elm, depicting a knight on horseback over a "torse".

In heraldry, a "torse" or wreath is a twisted roll of fabric laid about the top of the helmet and the base of the crest.

This leads us to think that this panel once formed the crest to a Coat of Arms now long since lost.

Condition - as per the images.
