Borgoñota all'antica

Armorer Filippo Negroli Italian
dated 1543
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 374
Esta obra maestra de la metalistería renacentista está firmada por Filippo Negroli de Milán, cuyas armaduras repujadas fueron calificadas de «milagrosas» y dignas de «inmortal alabanza» por los cronistas del siglo XVI. La celada está hecha de una sola plancha de acero repujada en altorrelieve en el estilo all’antica—con diseños inspirados en el arte clásico—y patinada para darle el aspecto del bronce. Los costados están cubiertos con volutas de acanto rodeando figuras de cupidos, un motivo quizá derivado de los frescos romanos de la Casa Dorada de Nerón, redescubierta a finales del siglo XV, que ejerció gran influencia sobre el diseño renacentista.
