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.
