Russ, regarding the Boulogne harness of Henry VIII, I'll have to downsize the museum tag, which gives a VERY abbreviated version of the story. Meanwhile, here's some pic's of D 20 Real Armeria Madrid, which is c. 1500. My apologies about the quality; they are actually details of photos taken at a goodly distance, as it is up on horseback. I think this is a product of the Helmschmid family. |

It's from the Spanish Arms and Armor book Dariusz mentioned above. I just had to check that out and found it to be very interesting (and free, of course!). The caption is illegible due to poor scanning, unfortunately. By the way images in the online version are a bit clearer than those in the PDF (or maybe I'm just using an unreasonable magnification when viewing my PDF). It's worth a look, anyway. It's mostly 16th c. pieces from the Spanish Royal Armoury, Madrid. The book is early 20th c., so there's no telling where all of these pieces are today. |
