Armour of the civic Guard, Amsterdam Museum #136446344
Description
Pictured is armour of the civic guard on display at the Amsterdam Museum, The Netherlands. Members of the civic guard were expected to provide their own armour and weapons, so only the well-to-do burghers could afford to join. The suits of armour seen here were made in Milan in 1580 and are decorated with scenes from Greek and Roman mythology.
