Medusa is a mythological icon, having been portrayed in many works of art over the ages. This custom hand made shield is a brilliant interpretation of the monstrous Medusa character whose gaze could turn onlookers into stone. Worked by the skillful hands of Robb Martin, this metal shield bears Medusas image with hair of living, venomous snakes. The Medusa Shield is a one of a kind work of art that can be displayed in either office or home with it's custom made mount. Metal and leather straps have also been fabricated on the backside of the shield. Robb Martin has been exploring the ancient art and craft of blacksmithing since 1987 and refers to his art as "an ancient and versatile craft, which allows infinite freedom of expression. It is so primal, using such basic tools and technology, that I find it profoundly empowering". The Medusa shield measures 23 ½" in diameter. This is not a production piece. This is a one of a kind hand made work of art.
