Ritterturniere um 1512, um 1512–1515

This is a drawing of a jousting scene with two armored horses and riders. One rider in a blue tunic has knocked the other rider off their striped brown and white horse. The fallen rider is on the ground beneath their horse, with a broken lance nearby. The victorious horse is adorned in blue, matching its rider. Both horses exhibit decorative detailing around the neck area. The composition captures a moment of impact and movement. The drawing style suggests a historical and heraldic quality, possibly indicative of illustrations from the medieval or Renaissance period.
