Rummaging through my old pics, I found these which I snapped at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York) when I went there last year.
Now I have no idea as to the era and as to which countries these armours are from!
Just the same, I thought I can post these pics, in order for us to better visualize the subject.
PS - I have many other pics of the armours displayed in that museum. Now if only I can find them ...
