EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the Burgonet Helmet, created between 1532 and 1535 by renowned artist Filippo Negroli and his workshop. Housed in the esteemed collection of State Hermitage in St. Petersburg, this helmet is a true testament to the artistry of Renaissance armor. Crafted from gilded steel, this burgonet helmet features intricate detailing that reflects the skill and precision of its creator. Its design combines elements of both a burgundian sallet and a traditional helm, resulting in a unique fusion that was popular during the early 16th century. The helmet's surface is adorned with ornate engravings depicting mythical creatures, floral motifs, and delicate patterns. The meticulous attention to detail highlights Negroli's mastery as an armor maker. This remarkable piece not only served as protective headgear but also symbolized status and wealth during its time. It represents an era when armor became more than just functional equipment; it evolved into wearable works of art. Captured through expert photography by Alexander Basilewsky for Fine Art Images' Basilevsky Collection, this image allows us to appreciate every intricacy of this historical artifact without commercial intent. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and offers insight into the artistic achievements achieved even within utilitarian objects like helmets.
