Close Helmet for the Tourney

Ornament copied from a design by Daniel Hopfer German

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 371

The ornament on the comb is copied from a design by the Augsburg printmaker and armor etcher Daniel Hopfer (ca. 1470–1536), whose published prints were very influential in the development of a recognizably Augsburg style of armor decoration, which was emulated in Innsbruck and elsewhere in Austria and South Germany.
