Giovanni Battista Piranesi, an Italian artist known for his etchings of ancient Rome, created this detailed print of Roman armor. The etching, possibly from his series *Antichità Romane*, features a gladiator's helmet and leggings. The helmet, decorated with a scene of gladiators in combat, is placed next to a pair of richly ornamented leggings. The artwork showcases Piranesi's mastery of detail and his fascination with the history of ancient Rome.
