I am in search of digital close up photo's of Hans Maysetters Maximilian style armour that is located in the
Landeszueghaus In Graz, Austria. I have their catalogue and CD but the pictures do not show clear detail of the fluting and there appears to be a difference between the left and right elbow cop. If there is a myArmoury member in Graz, I would enjoy communicating on this subject.

These are from the book "Imperial Austria: Treasures of Art, Arms & Armor from the State of Styria."
The elbow cops are indeed different. The fluting on the arms is too. I'm guessing it's composite.

The harness is indeed composite. The original arms and gauntlets went missing long ago. One occasionally runs across photos of it that show it without arms.
