A full-color reproduction of the Bavarian State Library's manuscript Cgm 582, a German fencing manual dedicated to the Messer commissioned by Hans Lecküchner in 1482. Lecküchner's most elaborate manuscript, it excels his earlier works both in its length-it is half again as long as CPG 430-and in that nearly every page includes a lavish watercolor illustration by an artist from the circle of Michel Wolgemut. Indeed, there is no other 15th century fencing treatise comparable to this manuscript, and it would not be equaled until the writings of Paulus Hector Mair in the 1540s and Joachim Meyer in the 1560s. A companion volume containing a transcription and commentary is available separately at ISBN 978-1-953683-17-5.
