Description

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

This was outside the entrance to a travelling display of battle armour and features many examples of Renaissance armour and the arms.

There are two life-sized knights on horseback, all wearing full body armour. A number of helmets in a variety of styles are also featured.

While we think armour is heavy and cumbersome, it was very well designed for its time. A full suit consisted of 12 to 14 components and weighed between 18 and 20 kilograms. Straps and hinges aided in the wearer’s ability to move freely.
