EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Burgonet, dating back to around 1540. Crafted by the skilled hands of Italian artisans from steel, this helmet stands as a testament to their mastery in metalwork. Measuring at an impressive 23.8x29.2x24.2 cm, it is now proudly displayed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. The Burgonet's intricate design and attention to detail are truly awe-inspiring. Its visor and sallets provide maximum protection for the wearer while exuding a sense of military elegance. The metallic profile reflects its purpose as armor, with rivets securing each component firmly in place. One cannot help but marvel at the hinged construction of this protective headgear - every hinge and bourgundian cheek piece serving its purpose flawlessly. This burgonet represents not only a functional item used on battlefields centuries ago but also an exquisite work of art that has stood the test of time. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' expertise in capturing fine art prints like this one, we can appreciate every delicate curve and contour that make up this extraordinary artifact from history. Let yourself be transported back to an era where craftsmanship was revered and battles were fought with honor as you gaze upon this magnificent burgonet captured forever through photography.
