"Scene of a Tournament in the Fourteenth Century, detail of the herald" is a historical painting completed in 1812 by the French artist Pierre-Henri Revoil. The artwork captures the pageantry and chivalric spirit of medieval tournaments, which were martial events held by European nobility. Revoil, known for his interest in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, meticulously depicts the herald—a key figure in such events—whose role was to announce and organize the jousts, and to declare the names and titles of the participating knights.

The painting is a testament to the Romantic era's fascination with the medieval past, a period which artists like Revoil sought to revive and idealize in contrast to the contemporary political turmoil of the early 19th century. In "Scene of a Tournament in the Fourteenth Century," Revoil's attention to historical detail is evident in the herald's attire, the heraldic emblems, and the atmosphere of the tournament grounds. The herald, often a colorful and authoritative figure, is portrayed with a sense of dignity and importance, reflecting the herald's role in the ceremonial aspects of the tournament.

Pierre-Henri Revoil's work contributes to the understanding of historical Romanticism in French painting. His portrayal of the herald in this scene not only serves as an artistic representation of medieval customs but also as a reflection of the cultural and historical interests of his own time. The painting is a valuable piece for those studying the Romantic period's approach to historical subject matter, as well as for those interested in the iconography and social structures of medieval chivalric events.
