Very nice, but I'm no economist. I presume that someone on the sift has a counterpoint to offer? Or can you check their work for accuracy? It all sounds pretty typical, which is unnerving and frustrating.

Would This 16th Century Helmet Terrify a Jousting Opponent? http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Neatorama/~3/itWtun6v5aY/ http://www.neatorama.com/2009/11/10/would-this-16th-century-helmet-terrify-a-jousting-opponent/#comments Tue, 10 Nov 2009 23:00:29 +0000 Minnesotastan http://www.neatorama.com/?p=27415 This embossed, etched, and gilded steel close helmet is attributed to German armourer Kolman Helmschmid. It currently resides in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where there is a relevant essay on fashion in 16th century European armor.

Helmets fitted with masklike visors were a popular German and Austrian fashion about 1510 to 1540. With their visors forged and embossed as humorous or grotesque human masks, such helmets were often worn in tournaments held during the exuberant pre-Lenten (Shrovetide) festivals, celebrations somewhat akin to the modern Mardi Gras. Substitute visors of more conventional type were often provided for everyday use.

Interestingly, the postulated 1515 date for this helmet would make it contemporary with the “horned helmet” previously posted at Neatorama.
