"Le Morte D'Arthur, Design for a Chapter Heading, Chapter X, Book V: How Sir Tristram Smote Down Sir Palomides, and How He Jousted with King Arthur, and Other Feats" is an illustration by the English artist Aubrey Vincent Beardsley (1872–1898), created for the publication of Sir Thomas Malory's "Le Morte d'Arthur." Beardsley's work is known for its distinctive black and white illustrations that combine elements of Art Nouveau and the Aesthetic movement. His illustrations for "Le Morte d'Arthur," completed in the 1890s, are among his most celebrated works and contributed significantly to the revival of interest in Malory's collection of Arthurian legends during the late 19th century.

This particular illustration serves as a chapter heading for the tenth chapter of the fifth book, which recounts the tale of Sir Tristram's combat with Sir Palomides and his jousting with King Arthur, among other adventures. Beardsley's design is characterized by its intricate line work and stylized figures, which capture the drama and romance of the Arthurian tales. The image is emblematic of Beardsley's ability to convey complex narratives through visually arresting and symbolic compositions.

Beardsley's illustrations for "Le Morte d'Arthur" were commissioned by the publisher J.M. Dent and were part of a larger project to produce an illustrated edition of Malory's work. The edition, first published in 1893-1894, was instrumental in shaping the visual interpretation of the Arthurian legends for the modern era and solidified Beardsley's reputation as a master illustrator. His chapter headings, full-page illustrations, and decorative borders are considered some of the finest examples of book illustration from the period and continue to influence artists and designers interested in the Arthurian mythos.
