Faithful replication of a Templar Knight / Templier guarding the entrance to a Medieval fortified city in France
"Le Templier"
The Templar knights were a military and religious order from the 12th to 14th centuries, (recently made more famous by the film the Da Vinci Code), who rose to fame on the back of the crusades and the money repository and forwarding system they invented which made them fabulously wealthy but which also was in turn the most likely cause of their eventual demise in France at the hands of the French King due to the greed of the French aristocracy who had bankrupted their country and looked for easier solutions than hard work. The Templar money system is believed to be the forefather of our current banking system. It is commonly thought that a few Templar knights managed to escape to the British Isles where some argue they formed the roots of our Freemasonry, and whom are thought to have been instrumental in the building of Roselyn Chapel in Scotland which has been the subject of much speculation over the the whereabouts of the Holy Grail and the "missing" Templar treasures which the French crown apparently failed to get its hands in in spite of their dastardly deeds. It is possible that the Templar knights sprung up as an order out of the ashes of the Cathar movement in southern France, known as the Knights Perfect/Parfait for their pious, simple beliefs, lowly lifestyle and system of worship which practiced Christianity for all rather than the wealthy and which got them into so much trouble with the established church and the Vatican that in the end they were also the victims of a witch hunt and extermination.

Please remember that colours may vary from what you see on your screen due to different PC and monitor settings and slight variations in fabrics and dyes. Sizing across some tapestry weaves may vary by up to 10% due to the release of tension and take up after releasing from looms when fully woven. Woven sizes are not actual finished sizes as approximately a 1" border is generally required to be used when fully lining a tapestry panel. Product supplied may vary slightly in appearance at edges due to picture cropping.
