This pen and ink drawing, titled "Tournament Joust from 1471," is a captivating depiction of medieval combat from the Stadelschen Instituts at Frankfurt. The image showcases two knights engaged in a fierce jousting match, each clad in intricately designed plate armor and elaborate helmets. Their horses, adorned with heraldic colors, add an additional layer of grandeur to the scene. The knights are armed with short swords, their hands gripping the hilts tightly as they maneuver their horses, poised for a decisive strike. In the background, two knights with maces stand in outline, adding to the sense of action and excitement. This illustration is a chromolithograph from Hefner-Alteneck's "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the early Middle Ages to the end of the 18th Century," published by Heinrich Keller in Frankfurt in 1883. The illustration was drawn by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, a renowned German archeologist, art historian, and illustrator. Hefner-Alteneck served as the director of the Bavarian National Museum from 1868 until 1886. The meticulous attention to detail in the drawing showcases the intricacies of medieval fashion and the artistry of the time, making it an invaluable historical record. The use of chromolithography, a printing technique that allowed for the production of detailed and vibrant images, further enhances the visual impact of the drawing. This image provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval tournaments and the chivalric code of honor that governed them.
