This full suit of armor, created in 1549 by Kunz Lochner, was made for Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor. The armor is a stunning example of 16th-century craftsmanship, featuring intricate details and a high level of polish. The armor is composed of steel plates, which are joined together by rivets and hinges. The armor is also decorated with etched patterns and gold plating. The suit was likely worn for both ceremonial and combat purposes. The piece is now on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
