(191.77 × 132.08 cm), Silk, Japan, 20th century, The carriages shown on this wedding robe, which illustrates a scene from The Tale of Genji, call to mind aristocratic culture of the Heian period (794-1185), when they served as vehicles for wealthy elites in Kyoto.

From about the mid-fifteenth century onward, mail was used in conjunction with full plate armor to fill the gaps between plates. Separate mail sleeves were made to be worn with a cuirass (breastplate and backplate); shaped panels of mail called gussets, covered the armpits or the crooks of the elbows and were attached to arming jackets, garments specially tailored to be worn under armor; and mail breeches, called brayettes or pairs of paunces, could be worn by men fighting on foot..
