Description

I figured these photos may be useful to someone as a drawing reference.

This suit of armor was produced during the 19th century, but replicates a suit which would have been used in the 15th century. It previously resided in a school in Germany, but is currently on loan to the Museum of World Treasures in Wichita, KS through the American Overseas Schools Historical Society.

This particular picture has some nasty reflection resulting from the sheet of plexiglass in front of the suit. Luckily, I had the opportunity to get into the case and disassemble the upper portions of the armor (they had been put together incorrectly and needed to be reorganized) and take additional photos:
