Procession of Knights Viewed by Ladies on a Balcony c. 1512 - 1515

This anonymous watercolor depicts a procession of knights in an indoor setting, likely a palace. The knights, clad in striped tunics and feathered hats, march in formation, their swords visible at their sides. Above them, a balcony filled with ladies observes the scene. The artist, likely from the early 16th century, captures the grandeur of the event with meticulous detail and vibrant color. This artwork is a beautiful representation of the pomp and ceremony that characterized royal life during the Renaissance.
