This video showcases two of Henry VIII's two-foot combat armours, crafted for him during his youth and athletic prime, specifically for the prestigious Field of Cloth of Gold tournament in 1520. Typically housed at the Royal Armouries in Leeds, these historical artifacts were featured in the "Dressed to Kill" exhibition. This exhibition, a collaboration between Historic Royal Palaces and the Royal Armouries, commemorated the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's ascension to the English throne and explored his arms and armour. The exhibition was held at the Tower of London from April 3, 2009, to January 17, 2010. Viewers can explore the Royal Armouries' extensive collection online.
