EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the mid-1500s - a Dagger crafted by the skilled hands of the German School in the 16th century. Made with steel and featuring an exquisite elk horn grip, this weapon stands as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of its time. Measuring at 37.8x6.5 cm, this Dagger is currently housed within the prestigious Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. It was generously gifted to the museum by Mr. and Mrs. John L. Severance, adding to their extensive collection of historical treasures. The intricate details on this blade are truly awe-inspiring; from its meticulously designed handguard and crosspiece to its finely honed edge, every aspect speaks volumes about both form and function. This dagger served as more than just a weapon; it represented power, protection, and status during an era dominated by martial prowess. As we admire this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to an age where blades like these were essential tools for warriors on battlefields or knights defending their honor. The metallic gleam reflects not only light but also echoes tales of bravery and conflict that have shaped our history. Let us marvel at this piece of militaria while appreciating its significance as both a work of art and an emblematic symbol of strength throughout centuries past. "
