Yi people in Yunnan or Sichuan with their laquered leather armour and leather shields.
In addition, a Korean painting representing Sichuanese Ming dynasty troops under Liu Ting during the Imjin War (1592-1598). Some of the troopers are wearing armours identical to the Yi ones. |

interesting also for art lovers amongst you...
after Rembrandt and Vermeer in the past, the Dutch Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam now has again a most interesting exhibition on Frans Hals, with paintings from all over Europe . It is till June and reservation is required. I just returned and was "blown outta my socks" by the detail and beauty of his portraying of the cold waepons at that time, specially the grips / hilts. Look for youself and enjoy ! Last edited by gp; 17th March 2024 at 02:19 PM. |

looking up something, I stumbled upon these 3 interesting items:
Three Arrowheads, circa 1437-39. Bohemia, probably Prague. Exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York These extremely large arrowheads, originally mounted on wooden straps, probably served as symbols of rank. They are decorated with royal monograms and insignia as well as religious invocations. The three prongs bear the monogram of AR Albert, King of Bohemia and Hungary (reigned 1437-39). In one case the monogram AE is also found, probably for Albert and Elizabeth, his queen. The right and left arrowheads bear the mark of the Turkish Arsenal, indicating that they were captured by Ottoman forces, perhaps during the campaign of 1439 during which Albert was killed, and then stored in the Turkish Arsenal in Constantinople.

C'mon gp. This is the one only topic dedicated to period people with Ethno weapons. As if you had no chance to post those arrowheads in a more adequate thread ... even in a new topic. I will skip over the puristic part !
