• A Visit to the Armor Galleries (short film on plate armour)
    0 replies, posted
I've tried searching but I haven't found it so apologies if late. Anyway, this was a short film made in 1924 by the Metropolitan Museum of Art that was created to answer the common questions about plate armour. Can you even walk around it? How complex did it get? Can a knight get on his horse by himself? This video should answer those questions. (FYI This film is silent) [video=youtube;NjKbi7YUNaI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjKbi7YUNaI&list=PLE669276634179216[/video] And yes, the armours worn in the vid seem to be the genuine sets at the Museum.
