A late 19th century model suit of South German, late Gothic armour, c 1480-1500, 36” high, mounted on a square wooden plinth complete with sword. The hinged sallet (helmet) with viewing slit, it has a carved wood human head inside with painted face (similar to those found in the Tower of London). The suit is named a “Kuriss”. The arm and leg defences are all articulated; gauntlets have pointed scales to fingers in keeping with the style of armour; long bizaare pointed shoes (worn only when mounted on horse), the hand and half sword is well formed with down drooping quillon, wooden grip and octagonal shaped pommel; the armour is mounted on a red cloth stuffed body. Good Condition. Plate 30 Note: The Kuriss is modelled on the style of armour owned by The Archduke Sigmund (1427-96) Lord of the Tyrol, part of the Hapsburg Empire. The original armour was given to him by his nephew Maximilian I, probably worn by him when he was younger.

Lot 694 is a maquette for a proposal submitted by David Backhouse for the same competition. *Artist's Resale Right may apply to this lot.
