Hello Gentlemen.
I was looking at the armours in the museum of Malta and i found them almost identical to the XVI century italian style of armour. Do you know if this style has any specific denomination, like the german ¨Maximillian¨style?
Thanks.
The following armours are from different regions of Europe, but i guess they are italian becouse a lot of them were forged there. I´ll post some more in my next post. (Note the characteristic pauldrons)
