EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the prestigious insignia of the Chancellor of the Order of the Garter in the United Kingdom. The model for this exquisite piece was established in 1645, making it a true historical treasure. Crafted by John James Eddington in London in 1825, this insignia is made from gold and emals, adding to its allure. The front side of the insignia features a delicate rose, symbolizing beauty and resilience. On the reverse side, one can find the ecu of Saint George, representing bravery and chivalry. Surrounding these intricate designs is the motto "Honi be who badly thinks about it" reminding all who see it to think twice before doubting its significance. Measuring at H 5.8 cm and w 1.4 cm with a weight of 32 g, this Chancellor's insignia holds immense cultural value within British history. It now resides in a private collection under anonymous ownership but has been graciously shared through Luisa Ricciarini's lens. With its rich symbolism and impeccable craftsmanship, this photograph captures not only an object but also a sense of national pride and honor associated with being part of such an esteemed order as The Order of the Garter in Great Britain.
