Note:
“The Black man depicted in this scene is not a “foreigner”; he is a Western European Medieval Knight.His clothing, armor and helmet is identical to the other French knights in this scene-the shirt of hooded mail and conical helmet is typical of French, English, and German knights in the 1200s.This manuscript, the Morgan Crusader’s Bible, is considered to be the most definitive source for Medieval Western European arms and armor design for that time period.”Medievalpoc.tumblr
