EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three different types of helmets from the medieval era. The first helmet, known as an Incomplete Falling Beaver or Visor Helmet, features a unique visor that opens on a hinge located on the forehead. However, this particular example is missing its beaver, which was a protective piece that covered the lower face and neck. The second helmet displayed in the image is a Pot Helmet of a Pikeman dating back to around 1620. This type of helmet was commonly worn by pikemen who were foot soldiers armed with long spears called pikes. Its design provided excellent protection for the head while allowing visibility through small apertures. Lastly, we have a fascinating helmet with a two-part visor and semi-circular apertures for vision, believed to be from around 1600. This innovative design allowed warriors to maintain optimal vision while ensuring their faces remained protected during battle. Published in 1868 as part of "The British Army: Its Origins, Progress And Equipment" this illustration offers us insight into the evolution of armor and weaponry throughout history. It serves as both an educational resource and an artistic representation of these ancient artifacts. Ken Welsh's skillful capture highlights not only the intricate details and craftsmanship put into creating these helmets but also their significance in providing protection to those who wore them centuries ago.
