Helmet

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Helmet by Vischer. A silver-colored metal helmet with a domed top and a chainmail face guard. The helmet has a long, thin fin on top, and two small metal pieces on either side of the dome. A metal strap runs down the center of the helmet, secured by a round piece of metal. The chainmail face guard is made up of small, interlocking metal rings that hang down from the helmet. The background is a plain gray color.
