As I intend to buy (better, let it make for me) a Burgonet this year, I need some informations or photos of early Burgonets/Sturmhauben. Should be about 1525 to 1550 (Doppelsöldner, no knights helmets) , Germany or Italy, and I thought it would be no problem, but surprisingly I did only found few photos and some drawings. As anybody has something about this helmet it would be nice to share it with me, Thanks, Peter

Follow this link:

http://hss.ulb.uni-bonn.de/diss_online/phil_f.../index.htm

Then download the very large PDF file (7.6 M) of Der Landsknecht im Spiegel der Renaissancegraphik um 1500 - 1540. It's a German-language document contains more than 200 contemporary image of Landesknechts (starting on page 296). It's the most complete visual resource I've found. I burned it to CD, and would encourage other Landesknecht afficionados to do the same. You'll find a few images of German infantry burgonets for the period of your interest.

@Chad: of course I checked the Spotlight article before posting a new Thread, but there are only few helmets in the first half of 16th cent. , it´s sad, but most are to late for me .
@ Sean: thanks for this great link, the pictures are wonderful.

Glad I could help. The images in the first post came from: 2,500 years of European helmets, 800 B.C.-1700 A.D. The ones in the second post from: Europäische Helme.

I heartily recommend both books.

So after waiting for a long time I finally got my new Burgonet/Sturmhaube from Tomasz Tsamula...I think it´s really wonderful, I hope You like it too...thanks Chad, for the photos, You will recognize it.
It´s a closed Sturmhaube, because the two wings meet under the chin, so it delivers more protection.

Ha!

Cool!!

I find the fact that a piece of armor has just come alive out of the pages of a history book completely fascinating. I'm never going to look at the photo of an attractive helmet the same way again.

Looks nice! Does Tomasz have a website? Not that I can't just Google...
