Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a metal piece of armor known as a Colletin, created by an unknown artist. The armor piece is shaped like a semi-circle with a wide, open top and a pointed bottom. The piece is made of a weathered silver metal. It features a rope-like design along its edge. The semi-circular piece is adorned with small brass rivets around its perimeter. The background transitions from black at the top to gray and then to white at the bottom.
