Salvete Omnes,
at the Austrian National Library they have this manuscript - by our prolific ecuyer Georg Engelhard Lohneysen.
Dated 1578AD it is beautifully written and illustrated - the men leading their mounts - done in gouache

| Hungarian, Ottoman or Polish noble |

| mule or large donkey with a docked tail |
the printed version of 1588 is condensed as per images but equally pleasing in its beauty, but without the plates with horses and mule being led. I do not read old German so to me these plates are it has to be - on Fb there is a group talking and writing about these old German equestrian manuscripts.
enjoy
