Armet à Rondelle

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Armet à Rondelle by an unknown artist is a silver-grey metal helmet. The helmet has a rounded top and a protruding brim around the forehead area. It has a T-shaped opening for the face, with the top bar of the T extending across the eyes and the bottom bar across the mouth. The bottom of the helmet is shaped to fit around the neck and secured with three rivets at the front. The metal surface shows signs of wear and aging, with visible scratches and pitting. The background of the image transitions from dark at the top to light grey at the bottom.
