Armour of King Charles IX

This ceremonial harness (1570–75) is attributed to King Charles IX of France, who reigned during the Wars of Religion. Adorned with mythological and floral motifs, it reflects the French Mannerist style, emphasizing themes of triumph and valor. The harness features gilding, silvering, and inlaid metals, intended for festive occasions rather than battle.
