Hello, I'm a curator of the Arms and Armour collection of the Croatian History Museum and I've seen a post by you about a 15th century sword the Hungarian National Museum. (December 15h 2020) Do you have information on the source of the image? Thank you! Leon Bošnjak

All of the posts I have made for objects from the collection of the Hungarian National Museum came directly from that museum's online collection. Indeed, the online collections on museum websites are where I source the vast majority of my images.

The particular post in question should be found here, however at the time of writing (March 11th, 2021 at 7:45 AM EST) the Hungarian Museum's online collection seems to be down, so I cannot provide a link to it.
