Do you have permission to re-use this image? Just because scans appear on Wiktenauer does not mean that they are free to use. Wiktenauer is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and many of the scans we host are only licensed for nonprofit use. In other cases, the scans have no standard license and Wiktenauer has received special permission to host them (and can't grant that permission to anyone else). The license terms appear in the Copyright and License Terms box at the bottom of the page that sent you here. When in doubt, always check with the museum or library that owns a manuscript before publishing or otherwise reusing its scans. |
Anonymous sword and buckler images
Revision as of 21:18, 3 June 2020 by Michael Chidester (talk | contribs)
These uncaptioned images generally appear across multiple manuscripts, but their origin and relationship are entirely unknown.
The first group, found in the Cl. 23842 and the MS B.26; their presence in the Cluny may indicate that they were intended to illustrate one or more prior German fencing treatises (such as that of Andre Lignitzer).
The second group, found in the Libr.Pict.A.83, Cod.I.6.2º.4, and Cgm 3712, are believed to have been part of the tradition that produced the MS I.33, and along with the writings of Paulus Kal formed the basis of Paulus Hector Mair's treatment of the weapon combination.
