God Speed by Edmund Leighton Poster
God Speed is a painting by British artist Edmund Leighton, depicting an armoured knight departing to war and leaving his beloved. The painting was exhibited in the Royal Academy of Arts in 1900. God Speed was the first of several paintings by Leighton in the 1900s on the subject of chivalry, the others being The Accolade and The Dedication.
The woman ties a red sash around the knight's arm, which he is meant to return, a mediaeval custom which assured both parties that they would be reunited, alive and well. A griffin on the newel post of the stairs is a symbol of strength and military courage. The knight departs through a castle gate with portcullis; others can be seen leaving through the gate.

I originally ordered this print in a larger size but was not pleased with the clarity of it. When I contacted Zazzle, they responded really quickly and were very helpful. I was able to reorder the print in a smaller size and it was shipped to me within a couple of weeks. The print was packaged well to ensure there was no damage during transit (Eco friendly, too!), and I am really pleased with it.
I am so grateful to the customer service team for the professional way they handled my order. I had this printed on matt finish card and I was really pleased with the quality. The colours were rich and the image sharp.
