This lot includes a pilos helmet, surmounted by a spiral plume holder and stylized ketoi horns, and preserving its cheek-guards; an anatomical cuirass with flanged edges and attachment rings; a pair of greaves embossed with the head of Athena; and two embossed chamfrons, one smooth, crowned with a laurel wreath centered with a rosette, and one with an ornate pattern of a palmette, foliage and a pair of wings, scrolling foliage along the sides and a palmette at the nose-guard.
Both chamfrons have near identical parallels, and possibly originate from the same workshops as the following objects: For the laurel-wreathed chamfron, see the example from the Shelby White and Leon Levy Collection, now at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (L1999.36.3.5), no. 95d in D. von Bothmer, ed., Glories of the Past. For the winged-palmette chamfron, see the excavated example from the Monterisi-Rossignoli hypogeium at Canosa, no. 46 and nos. 49-50, sold by D. Cahn in 1989, all in R. Graells i Fabregat, "Painted Panoplies: Antiquarian Study of the Weapons Painted in a Tomb in Paestum, Found in 1854," Lucentum, vol. XXXII, 2013.
