Brigandine Plate

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brigandine Plate by Artist. Rusty brown metal plate with a rough texture, exhibiting significant signs of wear and tear. The plate's surface displays a predominantly brown color with darker spots and patches. It is shaped irregularly, featuring a curved edge on the right side that smoothly arcs while the left side has a jagged, uneven edge. A portion at the top appears to be broken off. Several small holes are visible on the plate's surface, with one larger hole near the bottom-left corner. The plate is positioned against a plain white background.
