'gilded glass panel (verre églomisé) with the Crucifixion', probably Umbria, V&A, London, England
The date of this gilded glass panel is said to be about 1370, 1380, but the armour and clothing look almost 30 years older (even though they are meant to resemble old roman fashion, e.g. the skirt and the scalloped edge of the body protection of the soldier in front). In this respect also note the strange winged helmet of the soldier behind.
