Spanish Armour with Etching

The Spanish Armour with Etching provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of combat, originating from ancient Egyptian designs. As time progressed, Greeks and Romans refined the concept, leading to the medieval armor we recognize today. By the 14th century, this armor, crafted from steel or iron plates connected with hooks, nuts, and nails, became prominent in Europe. It was secured using straps and clasps, making it effective for both infantry and cavalry. By the late 15th century, Spanish armor evolved into a luxurious garment, adorned with intricate designs and artistic embellishments. However, with the advancement of firearms in the 17th century, the use of such armor began to decline. By the 18th century, Spanish armor primarily served as a decorative piece in castles, palaces, and museums.

In Madrid, the Royal Armoury boasts one of the largest and most impressive collections of armor in the world. This collection includes notable pieces from the 16th century, particularly from the era of Carlos I. Marto draws inspiration from these historic artifacts, carefully reproducing them. They use materials similar to the originals, including hand-molded iron and steel. Additionally, they incorporate brocades that imitate period fabrics. Each piece features an “ancient patina” that protects against oxidation and preserves its historical appearance.
