EDITORS COMMENTS
A striking image of a German suit of armour from the late 15th century, meticulously captured in this chromolithograph print. The suit showcases a Salade or sallet helmet, a distinctive headpiece with a visor that could be raised to protect the face during battle. The three-piece breastplate, or Harnische-Schmiede Plattner, is intricately engraved and jointed, allowing for greater freedom of movement. The arm and leg armour are also jointed, enabling the wearer to move with agility and ease. This suit of armour, an original piece housed in the Vienna Arsenal, would have been used in the thrilling world of jousting and tournaments during the chivalric era. The suit's elegant design and meticulous craftsmanship reflect the high level of skill and artistry that went into creating such protective garments. The illustration, produced by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck in 1889, is a testament to the rich history and fashion of the Middle Ages and the 17th century. Dr. Hefner-Alteneck, a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, meticulously documented and captured the intricacies of this armour in this beautiful lithograph. The print, lithographed by C. Regnier, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of knights, tourneys, and chivalry.
