Left Side Panel of a Crupper, ca. 1480–1500, Probably South German or Austrian, Steel, H. 21 in. (54 cm); W. 29 in. (73.7 cm). Wt. 7 lb. (3,138 g), Armor for Horse, This left side panel of a horse's rump defense is a rare survival of horse armor in the so-called Gothic style. The treatment of its surfaces is unusually complex, and the combination of ridges, particularly with 'notched' sections, appears to associate this example with a South German or Austrian workshop
