After Peter Vischer The Elder (1460-1529), Theodoric The Great, King of the Ostrogoths.
Continental Bronze Figure of Gothic King Theodoric as a knight in armor after the artist Peter Vischer, the king shown as a standing knight, wearing armor and holding a halberd and shield, the plinth base inscribed with the subject's name. The helmet's face guard is articulating.
Theodoric mustered his troops multiple times, fighting Goths, Ostrogoths and Romans. He ruled over the Italians from Ravenna. Peter Vischer created the original bronze in the mid-15th Century.
The Grand Tour period was a time of great expansion and traveling for young learners and explorers. They came back with bronzes such as these to commemorate their travels.
