Broadsword

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Broadsword by unknown artist. The image shows a close-up of a sword hilt and blade. The hilt has a brown wooden grip and a metal pommel that resembles a crown. The crossguard is made of intricately designed metal with a curved shape. The blade is long and slender, made of metal with a slight sheen and visible pitting or etching along its length. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
