查理五世皇帝的双管簧轮手枪

Gunsmith Peter Peck German
Etcher Ambrosius Gemlich German
ca. 1540–45
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 375
这支簧轮手枪将机械上的智巧与精致的图案相结合，是慕尼黑钟表匠、枪械匠彼特·佩克的杰作。其带蚀刻与鎏金的枪管以及其他金属部件则由艺术家安布罗修斯·杰姆里克设计装饰，上面还有神圣罗马帝国皇帝查理五世的徽章。簧轮装置是在十五世纪晚期或十六世纪早期的意大利或德国发明的，这是第一种真正的自动打火系统，使枪支能预先装好弹药进入待触发状态，立即就能投入使用。一批身居高位的人最早开始定制这种有精美装饰的火器，查理五世就是其中的顾主之一。
