Looking for more armour by Klaus Wagner of Innsbruck.
Trying to find more peices of armour made by Klaus Wagner of Innsbruck. I know only of two pairs of cuisses. One pair´s part of the great harness in R.A Leeds, which might also include greaves and schaller by him (schaller SEEM to have his maker´s mark, but it might just be corrotion-mark..).
These cuisses are spectacular and im on a ardous search for more items. Any experts got some info on this?
Here is an example from Die Innsbrucker Plattnerkunst.

Klaus Wagner, Stechzeug Erzh. Sigmunds, circa 1485 (?)

Great picture of the cuisses, thanks.
Now where might i find that Die Innsbrucker Plattnerkunst-book? Its almost an antique by now..

What would be most interesting would be to find peices that would go together with those cuisses - other parts of a field harness by K. Wagner..
