EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning black and white albumen print, titled "Armor of Philip III," dates back to the 1850s and was created by the renowned English photographer Charles Clifford. The image captures the intricate details of a magnificent suit of armor, believed to have once belonged to Philip II of Spain, who reigned from 1598 to 1621. Philip III, the son of Philip II and Anne of Austria, succeeded his father upon his death. Known for his love of hunting and the arts, Philip III was the last Habsburg king of Spain before the dynasty's decline. The armor in this photograph is a testament to the grandeur and military might of the Spanish monarchy during this period. Charles Clifford, a master of his craft, expertly captured the textures and patterns of the armor in this monochromatic print. The contrast between the dark, polished metal and the lighter areas of the armor, such as the intricate engravings and embossed decorations, create a visually striking image. This photograph is an essential addition to any collection of heritage art or historical photography. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of monarchs, royalty, and the intricacies of warfare. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and history it represents.
