Helmet and breastplate, Milan, Italy, 1540-1545 AD. Formerly part of a parade armor, this breastplate is the only signed work of Giovan Paolo Negroli, a cousin of the more famous Filippo. Now bright, the breastplate’s surface originally was russet-colored, and the raised and etched areas were gilded.

It's so weird to me, as a person who grew up loving "period dramas," to realize that I haven't been really excited about a period drama in years. 😕 I used to be so excited about them, and now it's like.. a trailer comes out... I watch the trailer. I go, "Oh." And then I move on with my life with a vague sinking feeling of disappointment again. And it is what it is. The world certainly doesn't revolve around me and my preferences. But it's a weird feeling. Kind of like mourning the loss of a friend who you used to be close to, but has now changed beyond recognition, and you miss them.

#the issue is that trying to visually and narratively engage with the historical period isn't fashionable #post modern deconstruction is vastly cheaper and easier to write #besides which there is an attitude that engaging with historical topics runs contrary to escapism #so what is produced is a vivid nylon facsimile that has no interest in its setting #and tropes that often fail to land because the shows are so far removed from the original style that referencing it only serves to reinforc #the differences #and expose a disdain for research of any kind #which is an active impediment to the creation of interesting historical fiction
