KING OF LOVE

THE KING OF LOVE

In the medieval and Renaissance periods, tournaments were far more than mere displays of martial skill; they were grand spectacles that showcased the wealth and power of one noble house over another. In keeping with this tradition, the TORNEOINARMATURA also features its KING OF LOVE, chosen by delegations and nobility from among the MEN-AT-ARMS who have distinguished themselves in the following ways:

LOYALTY AND COURAGE: Behaviour during the tournament, assessed by judges and fellow men-at-arms.

GRACE AND BEARING: The elegance and splendour of attire and presentation, judged by the ladies.

REPUTATION: Voted on by all members of the DELEGATIONS.

HONOUR: A special vote conducted by the CONSTABLE.

At the conclusion of the tournament, the MAN-AT-ARMS who garners the highest acclaim will be crowned the KING OF LOVE, receiving the PRIZE awarded for this honour.
