The Art of Power at National Gallery of Art

I have been to National Gallery of Art several times before so Today I want to look special exhibition about Spain armors and portraits which have wonderful arts. The Art of Power will run through Novemer 1, 2009.
Unfortunately it did not allow taking a picture. You can get more detail information about it in the brochure.
I captured the similar pictures here.







When I saw these kinds of Spanish armor, I just said, "This is art! ART!"
What meaning did the Spanish armor imply?


When my family went to back Korea last winter, my kid tried on their father's armor with fun.

Compare to Spanish armor  of 16th Centry, modern armor is too simple and is just armor.
