Artist, German, active 16th century

This is an illustration of a knight and two men inside a tent. The knight wears armor and a plumed helmet, facing two seated men under a richly decorated tent. One man, with a long beard, holds a dagger above a table. A sword is placed centrally, gripped by all figures. In the background, spears with banners stand upright. The drawing is detailed, with textures applied to the folds of clothing, armor, and tent canopy.
