Lingo The MET Masks Armor Playing Cards

The Met x Lingo Collection offers a fun and easy way to learn the art. Each card in the collection features a high-definition work of art, complete with its artist's name, and the culture and period when it was made, making it easy to learn about art.

Boasting an unusual sculptural quality, this shaffron (horse's head defence) exemplifies the distinctive new fashion for fluted armour that developed in Germany in the early 16th century and remained popular until about 1530.

The Met x Lingo deck of cards brings together a handpicked selection of eye-catching art from across The Met collection. Each deck of cards has 52 of the Met's most compelling displays of armour along with key trivia.
