介绍（中）	这是一件罕见的保存下来的所谓哥特式风格的马盔甲。它的四块长而水平的板向下重叠，这是十五世纪末至十六世纪第二或第三季度马盔甲的特征。然而，表面的处理异常复杂，平行的凹槽以浅人字形图案跟随在板的边缘，短而直的凹槽带突出了每个板的顶部和底部边缘。顶板上有一个突出的凸台，凸台位于马的臀部，两侧有对角凹槽。结构和装饰赋予了这种elemenet不同寻常的横向强调，而不是对垂直线的强调，更常见的是与"哥特式"盔甲的山脊和所谓的马克西米利安式盔甲的凹槽联系在一起。特别是脊与"缺口"部分的结合，似乎将这个例子与南德意志或奥地利的一个作坊联系在一起，再加上扇形的下边缘，表明制造日期在15世纪的最后20年内侧板可以与柏林（德意志历史博物馆，W 1422）和利兹（皇家军械库，VI.379，II.3）相应日期的完整酒吧的类似盘子相比较。
介绍（英）	This left side panel of a crupper is a rare survival of horse armor in the so-called Gothic style. Its four long, horizontal plates overlapping downward are characteristic of horse armor dating from the late fifteenth to the second or third quarter of the sixteenth century. The treatment of the surfaces, however, is unusually complex, with parallel grooves following the edges of the plates in a shallow chevron pattern and bands of short, straight notches highlighting the top and bottom edge of each plate. The top plate features a prominent boss, which would sit over the point of the horse's hip, flanked by diagonal grooves at either side. Construction and decoration give this elemenet an unusual horizontal emphasis instead of a stress on the vertical line, more commonly associated with both the ridges of "Gothic" armor and the fluting of so-called Maximilian-style armor. The combination of ridges with "notched" sections, in particular, appears to associate this example with a South German or Austrian workshop and together with the scalloped lower edge, indicates a date of manufacture within the last two decades of the fifteenth century. Ths side panel can be comared to similar plates belonging to complete bards of corresponding date in Berlin (Deutsches Historisches Museum, W 1422) and Leeds (Royal Armouries, VI.379, II.3).
