@unzip_history: Surviving examples of Maratha armour are exceptionally rare, making this magnificent helmet, preserved in the State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg, all the more extraordinary. Fashioned in Maharashtra towards the close of the seventeenth century, this extraordinary piece demonstrates the technical mastery of Indian armourers. #maratha #shivaji #indianhistory
