Closed Sallet with Grotesque Face (Schembart visor)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Dark green and gold helmet with a grotesque face, resembling a closed sallet with a visor. The helmet is shaped like a human head, with a smooth top and a curved visor that covers the face. The visor has two horizontal slits for the eyes and a small opening for the mouth. The helmet appears to be made of metal, possibly leather or steel, and has a weathered, aged appearance. The background is a gradient of dark gray to black. The helmet is titled "Closed Sallet with Grotesque Face (Schembart visor)" and was created by an unknown artist.
