Two mounted knights in armor for two different types of course: with target shield (targe) and with great helm (heaume). The knight on the left has blue striped colors on his mount, with a image of a small boy on top of a cloud holding a lance. The knight on the right has pink colors decorated with the letter D, many birds and a golden birdcage.. In the course, the knight aimed his lance at a particular spot on the opponent's breastplate - when this button was hit, a metal plate was shot into the air (shown in the plate as golden fragments above the knight).. Handcolored copperplate engraving from Robert von Spalart's "Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages" (1796).
