Fine Linstocks Salvaged From the Mary Rose
The Mary Rose was sunk during the Battle of Spithead in 1545.
As Henry VIII ordered many items for his men from Northern Italy, especially the Brescia region, the zoomorphic, monster-shaped heads of the linstocks are consistent with the style of the Renaissance period. The Mary Rose Museum, Portsmouth. m Last edited by Matchlock; 9th July 2012 at 11:30 PM. |
