EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Burgundian sallet, a type of helmet, from the armoury of Emanuele Filiberto. Housed at the Armoury of the Royal Palace in Musei Reali, Turin, this remarkable piece represents the Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods that flourished in Europe during the first and second millenniums A. D. The photograph itself was taken around 1920-1930 by Alinari, Fratelli. It beautifully captures every intricate detail of this historical artifact, allowing us to appreciate its craftsmanship even after centuries have passed since its creation in the 16th century. The Burgundian sallet is a testament to both functionality and artistry. Its elegant design features a distinctive shape with a curved visor that provides protection for the face while still allowing good visibility for its wearer. The helmet's construction reflects expert metalworking techniques prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an age where knights donned such helmets as they rode into battle or participated in tournaments. We can almost hear their clanking armor and feel their determination on display. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and cultural heritage. It prompts us to reflect on how artistic expressions evolve over time while retaining their timeless beauty. Through preservation efforts at Musei Reali's Armoury, treasures like this Burgundian sallet continue to inspire awe and fascination among visitors from all walks of life.
