image: The centre of the composition shows a 14th century horizontal bombard set upon a wooden base and protected by a
wooden mantlet set at 30 degrees. In front of the artillery piece stands a gunner, back towards the viewer, dressed in soup-plate style
helmet, chain-mail coif and studded leather brigandine. To foreground left stands a similar gunner viewed from the waist up, wearing a
salet and looking from left to right. At the right of the composition there kneels a third mailed gunner about to light the charge. Behind
him a fully armoured knight on foot gives directions. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | Costume and fashion FR.A Uniforms Artillery | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Devambez, Paris | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
