Hi All,
I am looking for detailed photos of a suit of Maximilian armour Made by Hans Ringler for Otto Heinrich around 1516 so far the photo below is the only one I can find. Particularly need front side back of helmet and gorget. But any detailed shots of the suit would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ell

Thanks Sean,
This suit is in the Vienna collection but for some reason this is the only photo of it that has been published.
I will check out the Wallace collection and see if they have anything similar.
Thanks again!
Ell

That harness is A 239, KMV, listed in their catalog as being the work of Lorenz Helmschmid, the same smith who made the 'Sigismund' gothic harness. There was a thread on the Armour Archive that showed a fair number of photos of it, but I don't know what thread it was. Do a search under B. Fults as author.
