Embossed steel helmet by Filippo Negroli, 1510-1579.
The graceful mermaid-like siren forming the helmet’s comb holds a grimacing head of Medusa by the hair. The sides of the helmet are covered with acanthus scrolls inhabited by putti, a motif ultimately derived from ancient Roman sculpture and wall paintings.
