Half-Suit of Armor for the Field

Cleveland Museum of Art

The armor is silver with a helmet that covers the entire head, featuring a pointed top and a faceplate with a T-shaped opening. The torso piece covers the chest and abdomen, with two large plates on the shoulders and two smaller ones on the upper arms. The elbows, forearms, and hands are also covered in metal, with the hands having articulated fingers. The hips and upper thighs are covered in metal plates with horizontal strips and rivets. The background fades from black at the top to gray at the bottom. The armor, titled Half-Suit of Armor for the Field, was made by an unknown artist.
