This print showcases a Langobardic strap-end, crafted from bronze during the 5th to 7th century AD. Measuring at a length of 8.5 cm, this exquisite piece is part of a private collection and has been beautifully captured by photographer eHeini Schneebeli. The strap-end itself is an extraordinary example of Germanic metalwork, displaying intricate patterns and decorative engravings that were once used to adorn clothing. Its ornate design reflects the artistic sensibilities and craftsmanship prevalent during this historical period. With its rich history and cultural significance, this strap-end serves as a testament to the importance placed on attire and personal adornment in ancient times. The attention to detail in its decoration speaks volumes about the value placed on self-expression through fashion even centuries ago. Through this photograph, Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this particular artifact but also gain insight into the artistry and creativity of our ancestors.
