Armourers at work in a medieval forge.
Armour was shaped while cold, and only went into the forge for annealing in between sessions of hammering. Exception the fingertips on gauntlet.
Kovácsok dolgoznak egy középkori kovácsműhelyben. A népi hiedelemmel szemben páncélokat addig ütötték, amíg ki nem hűltek és nem melegítették őket újra ütésenként. Egyetlen kivétel ez alól a
páncélkesztyű ujjhegy része. A képen található egy szokatlan kinézetű négyszarvú üllő. A háttérben pedig üllőbetétek. A képen látható szerszámok nem azonosak a korabeli általános
kovácsok szerszámaival.
Making Traps, illustration from 'L'Art de l'Artillerie' by Wolff de Senftenberg, late 16th century
The miniature shows Adrian's two-part
martyrdom. He is seated on the anvil, his intestines having already
fallen out, as two executioners begin to hack off his legs. Adrian looks
heavenward, while in the background Natalia prays contentedly; the
emperor, at the left, directs the torture. N. of the A. : for further

St Eligius in His Workshop
c. 1450
Engraving
Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam
This mid 15th century engraving by a master referred to as Bileam Master depicts a typical goldsmith workshop. It shows Bishop Eligius, patron saint of goldsmiths, at work. The saint is seen sitting in the middle of his workshop, hammering the cup of a chalice on an anvil. This is one of the basic work techniques of goldsmiths, who were especially adept at beating metal. Two apprentices are seated on the right at a workbench, one stamping metal, the other working on the buckle of a belt. The apprentice on the left in front of the richly adorned furnace is pulling wire through a perforated board.
