    Wonderful extant examples from the museum and the prints are fabulous. Those last few look like Transylvanian cavalry?
    Best wishes, James

    they could have been the Hungarians (also from Transylvania, as it was Hungarian then) and the Croats. Hussar attire and suit of arms were gaining popularity
