Compton

Commons now has this portrait of Sir William Compton wearing his Greenwich armour. The armour drawing is here: http://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O1069305/the-almain-armourers-album-the-armour-design-jacob-halder/ - we might want to add that to appropriate places. - PKM (talk) 21:54, 26 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

the naming article

edit

the word "armour" instead "armor" is widely used in living history in oreder to avoid confusion between modern and midevial armors, so the article ought to be named as "Greenwich armour" not "Greenwich armor" (Idot (talk) 01:18, 14 July 2009 (UTC))Reply

Ormonde

edit

I have been informed by a student of these things off-list that Thomas Butler, 10th Earl of Ormond is not mentioned in the Almain Armourers' Album, and that it is unlikely that the suit he is wearing in his portrait is in fact Greenwich armour. Does anyone have a citation one way or the other? - PKM (talk) 18:37, 16 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

No, sorry. I'd just yank him - there are too many pics, especially portraits, anyway. Johnbod (talk) 20:22, 16 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Is anyone familiar enough with this article to know if that dead link is from Henry VIII: Arms and the Man, 1509—2009 (worldcat), which Richardson contributed to and wrote a chapter of the same name in? ~Cheers, TenTonParasol 01:33, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
