| Title |
Close Helmet of the "Maximilian" Style |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: A close helmet encloses the head (as opposed to a sallet). This type combines the rounded Italian shape with the crisp, vertical fluting, crest, and corded borders that evolved from German late-medieval armor. The fluting deflected projectiles and made the plate stronger without adding weight. At 5 lb. 11.7 oz., this piece is not heavy for a close helmet.
The style is associated with Emperor Maximilian I (reigned 1493-1519), Archduke Albert's famous ancestor, who was keenly interested in improving armor technology. |
