Ritterturniere um 1512, um 1512–1515

This is a painting of a jousting scene. It shows two armored knights on horses engaged in a joust, each holding a lance. The knight on the left has a brown barding on his horse and elaborate feather plumes on his helmet. The knight on the right has blue and red trappings on his horse and a helm with a cruciform motif. Both knights have intricate patterns on their armor. The painting is formal and detailed, reminiscent of late-Renaissance or early Baroque art focusing on chivalric events.
