Warrior Fighting a Dragon

“Warrior Fighting a Dragon” is a piece from France, made in 1170-1180 and it is part of the Romanesque collection. This medallion shows a warrior fighting a dragon. The warrior is holding a knife in one hand with his arm raised and his other arm, in front of him, is holding a shield. There is not much detail on his face because that part appears to be worn down. Surrounding the warrior and dragon, there are plant-like patterns and designs. The colors in this piece are shades of grey, blue, yellow, and red. The measurements for this is 6.5cm x 0.3cm and it is a purchase from the J. H. Wade Fund 1951.546. This image is in the public domain.
