Ritterturniere um 1512, um 1512–1515

This is a drawing of a jousting scene. Two armored figures are seen engaging in a joust on horses. One figure wears green and white, appears slightly tilted back, and is mounted on a green-clad horse. The other figure, dressed in red, seems to be striking with their lance and is mounted on a horse adorned in red. Both horses have caparisons matching their riders, providing a contrast against the light background. The detailed artwork evokes a medieval jousting tournament setting. At the bottom, there is a torn piece of paper with cursive writing.
