Helmet

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Helmet by Gabriele Koch. The helmet has a rounded top made of metal. The top portion is dome-shaped and smooth with visible wear and tear. The majority of the helmet is covered in a mesh of interlocking metal rings that hang down in a curtain-like fashion. The metal rings are densely packed and have a uniform size and shape. The helmet is supported by a thin black pole in the center. The pole is straight and smooth. The background is a plain gray color. The helmet and pole are on a white surface.
