Morion

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a Morion by an unknown artist. The helmet has a large bowl covering the top and back of the head, with a brim that curves forward at the sides and back, and a noseguard. The helmet is made of steel and is decorated with etched designs, including floral patterns and other intricate details. The etched designs cover the entire surface of the helmet, with a central panel on the bowl and a circular design on the top. The background of the image fades from black at the top to light gray at the bottom.
