EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate reconstruction of helmet elements from the renowned Staffordshire Hoard, a remarkable collection of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver metalwork. Discovered in 2009 near the village of Hammerwich in Staffordshire, England, this hoard consists of approximately 4,000 items dating back to the 7th century AD. The majority of objects found within this treasure trove are crafted from precious gold and were created between AD 570-650. Buried during the mid-7th century, these artifacts offer a fascinating glimpse into early medieval history. The print captures the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into recreating these helmet elements. The replica headdress features an ornate crest that once adorned an ancient warrior's headpiece.
