Close-Helmet for the Field ca. 1560-70 Italian In the 1560s it became fashionable in Italy to cover an armor with multiple narrow bands of foliate ornament, a practice carried to the extreme in this example. The presence of a large reinforcing brow plate on a close-helmet of this date is highly unusual, but it is found on similarly decorated armors made for the court of Ferrara. (The front collar lames are missing.). Close-Helmet for the Field 26510
