Armor for Man and Horse with Völs-Colonna Arms

Cleveland Museum of Art

This image features a knight on horseback wearing silver and red armor. The knight wears plate armor with an articulated design for mobility. A red plume protrudes from the top of his helmet. He holds a long spear in his right hand and the reins in his left. The horse is also covered in plate armor with a red trim. The horse's armor features a patterned fabric underneath and scalloped metal along the bottom. The horse and knight are on display on a wooden platform in a museum or gallery setting. There are several tapestries on the wall behind them, along with glass display cases containing additional armor and weapons. A suit of armor stands on display to the right.
