Bill, Glad to help and you are so right about Knights fighting for Counts, Lords and all at odds against each other over land and women.
Dean, Your post card is from an original painting and is based on one of Julius Wolf’s most famous novels and historical accounts in the 14th century from his home town of Quedlinburg, Germany. The name of the book is called “The Raubgraf" and your post card depicts the scene were the Raubgraf (Robbery Count), Albrecht ll von Regenstein dies by the sword to the chest at the hands of other Knights. The Raubgraf rode with six other Knights and were known as the “the bad seven”. If you would like more info about Wolf or the story just let me know and I’ll see what I can do to help. Regards.
