EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of historical craftsmanship - a Half armour and targe for service on foot, dating back to around 1600. Crafted with steel, gilding, brass, and leather by the skilled Master of the sign of the cuirass with the letters IPF (fl. c. 1600), this intricate armor stands at an impressive height of 86.4 cm. Every detail in this ornate ensemble tells a story; from its baroque stripes to its beautifully etched and gilded surface. The breastplate exudes strength and elegance while the gauntlet adds an extra layer of protection for its wearer. The spaulders and pauldrons are meticulously designed, showcasing exquisite metalwork that speaks volumes about the artistry during this period. The gilt decorations add a touch of opulence to this military masterpiece, making it not just functional but also visually striking. This half armor was specifically crafted for infantry use during the Renaissance era when such protective gear played a crucial role in battles. Displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago as part of their esteemed George F. Harding Collection, this photograph captures every aspect of its decorative beauty without compromising any intricacy or detail. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still appreciate and marvel at the skillful workmanship displayed by our ancestors in creating these remarkable pieces of militaria art.
