An absolutely fantastic view, but I'm not sure that it necessarily makes for a great photograph. I really don't think I managed to find a strong composition, and I think this is a location I will have to return to in the future to see if I can improve upon it.

This stunning Anglo-Saxon helmet at the British Museum is a replica from the one found at the Mound 1, Sutton Hoo, Suffolk, England.The face-mask is the most remarkable feature of the helmet: it has eye-sockets, eyebrows and a nose, which has two small holes cut in it to allow the wearer to breathe freely. The bronze eyebrows are inlaid with silver wire and garnets. Each ends in a gilt-bronze boars-head - a symbol of strength and courage. Placed against the top of the nose, between the eyebrows, is a gilded dragon-head that lies nose to nose with a similar dragon-head placed at the end of the low crest that runs over the cap. The nose, eyebrows and dragon make up a great bird with outstretched wings that flies on the helmet rather like the bird of prey on the shield.

 

The original helmet was badly damaged when the burial chamber collapsed. By precisely locating the remaining fragments as if in a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, the helmet has been rebuilt.

As all my Flickr friends know, my standard style is the picture postcard approach. When the light is really bad I'll sometimes try a mono conversion to see if that works. But this time I thought I'd try something really different and hopefully creative and see what your reaction is. If you don't like it, please tell me! Incidentally, I wasn't happy with the earlier version, so I've deleted it.

 

This was taken by the Fish Quay in Plymouth's Sutton Harbour, and the light was dire!

The Sutton Hoo helmet

Anglo-Saxon, early 7th century AD

From Mound 1, Sutton Hoo, Suffolk, England

This extraordinary helmet is very rare. Only four complete helmets are known from Anglo-Saxon England: at Sutton Hoo, Benty Grange, Wollaston and York.

The helmet was badly damaged when the burial chamber collapsed. By precisely locating the remaining fragments and assembling them as if in a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, conservators have reconstructed the helmet. A complete replica made by the Royal Armouries shows how the original would have looked.

The helmet comprised an iron cap, neck guard, cheek pieces and face mask. Its form derives from Late Roman cavalry helmets. The helmet’s surfaces were covered with tinned copper alloy panels that gave it a bright, silvery appearance. Many of these panels were decorated with interlacing animal ornament (‘Style II’) and heroic scenes of warriors. One scene shows two men wearing horned head-gear, holding swords and spears. The other shows a mounted warrior trampling a fallen enemy, who in turn stabs the horse. The rider carries a spear which is supported by a curious small figure, standing on the rump of his horse – perhaps a supernatural helper. Similar scenes were popular in the Germanic world at this time.

The face-mask is the helmet’s most remarkable feature. It works as a visual puzzle, with two possible ‘solutions’. The first is of a human face, comprising eye-sockets, eyebrows, moustache, mouth and a nose with two small holes so that the wearer could breathe. The copper alloy eyebrows are inlaid with silver wire and tiny garnets. Each ends in a gilded boar’s head – a symbol of strength and courage appropriate for a warrior. The second ‘solution’ is of a bird or dragon flying upwards. Its tail is formed by the moustache, its body by the nose, and its wings by the eyebrows. Its head extends from between the wings, and lays nose-to-nose with another animal head at the end of a low iron crest that runs over the helmet’s cap.

A precious survival, the Sutton Hoo helmet has become an icon of the early medieval period. (from British Museum explanation)
