The Knight’s Relic — Original gothic medieval Ink Drawing (Framed A4 Artwork)
 
One hand forged in steel. The other claimed by time.
 
This is the original hand-drawn artwork of The Knight’s Relic — a dark, gothic fine liner illustration that captures a haunting, ceremonial stillness. One medieval knight’s gauntlet and one skeletal hand grip the hilt of a longsword together, united beneath a dented great helm. The black ink background swallows the surrounding space, while a few blades of grass at the base hint at decay, memory, and the passage of time.
 
Drawn with obsessive detail in fine liner and black ink, this piece blends gothic art, medieval symbolism, and tattoo-style illustration into a striking vertical composition. It feels like a relic from a battlefield chapel — solemn, worn, and sacred.
 
This original comes professionally framed in a subtly textured matte black wooden frame, which enhances the depth and shadows of the artwork. The frame is bold but minimal — designed to complement the drawing without distracting from it. No mount is included, allowing the black ink background to bleed straight to the edge for maximum drama.
