The manuscript features 112 sheets showcasing contestants in various tournaments, particularly the Gesellenstrechen or bachelors' jousts, held in Nuremberg from 1446 to 1561. It also includes illustrations of a renaissance parade and pageant sleighs from a 1640-41 winter event. The artwork is likely created by a renaissance artist or Briefmaler, known for embellishing documents and painting coats-of-arms, highlighting the rich cultural context of tournaments and festivities in medieval Germany.
