Italian Armor Of The End Of 15th Century


Italian armor of the end of the 15th century, from the equestrian statue of Bartolommeo Colleoni at Venice. This war harness is interesting on account of its enormous shoulder pieces, which are not fastened either to the arm-guards, to the back or to the breastplate, for between them may be seen a large surface of coat of mail.
