About The Champion

The Champion is an 1824 history painting by the British artist Charles Lock Eastlake. It depicts a knight about to depart for battle or possibly for jousting as a lady ties a "favour" around his armour. It reflected the growing influence of medievalism in Romanticism at the time and was likely influenced by the novels of Walter Scott. It is noticeable for combining these themes with the bright colours that reflected Eastlake's fascination with the Venetian School of the sixteenth century. It was a theme that would be taken up later by the Pre-Raphaelites.
