Closed Burgonet

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Closed Burgonet by an unknown artist shows a silver-colored metal helmet with a distinctive crest on top that runs along the center. The helmet's faceplate features a grid-like pattern of metal bars forming a triangular shape, with a nose guard and a small, protruding visor. The edges of the helmet and faceplate are adorned with rivets. A short neck guard is attached at the bottom. The helmet sits on a short, cylindrical stand. The background is a plain gray color.
