EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of 15th-century German armor, specifically a Sallet helmet from Basel, created by the talented Hans Blarer the Younger. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this close-up shot, allowing us to appreciate the artistry that went into its creation. The Sallet helmet itself is a rare find, serving as a testament to the rich history of warfare and military tactics during this period. Made entirely of steel, it symbolizes both strength and protection on the battlefield. Its unique design features an elongated shape that covers most of the head while leaving space for vision through narrow eye slits. The vibrant color captured in this photograph adds another layer of visual appeal to an already stunning piece. It serves as a reminder that even centuries-old artifacts can still evoke awe and fascination today. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this Sallet helmet stands as a testament to our cultural heritage and offers insight into medieval German craftsmanship. By capturing its essence through photography, we have ensured that future generations can admire and study this extraordinary object without compromising its integrity or historical significance.
