EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a leg-defence for the right foreleg of a horse dating back to 1550. Crafted by the skilled hands of the German School in the 16th century, this steel armour stands as a testament to their exceptional metalworking prowess. Measuring at 25.6 x26.2x22.1 cm, this bevelled and hammered masterpiece is currently housed in the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge, UK. The intricate details and artistry put into its creation are truly awe-inspiring. The mottled patina on this leg-defence adds an air of antiquity and authenticity to its appearance, showcasing centuries worth of wear and tear from military use. Every recessed area has been meticulously riveted together, allowing for flexibility and articulation while providing utmost protection during battle. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where horses played an integral role in warfare. This leg defence serves as a tangible reminder of the dedication and craftsmanship that went into equipping these noble creatures with essential protective gear. Let us appreciate not only the historical significance but also marvel at how such functional yet beautiful pieces were created over five centuries ago. It is through images like these that we can continue to cherish our rich cultural heritage and pay homage to those who came before us.
