Description

Two-volume colour book with slipcase, 800 pages in total, a wealth of photos, graphics, paintings and illustrations. This large-scale, lavishly-designed two-volume colour publication is the first scientifically based, in-depth description of the swords, pallasches, sabres, and small swords with which the Habsburg army was armed. The first volume covers the period from the beginning of the 17th century, the end of the Thirty Years‘ War, the beginning of standing armies from around 1650, to the end of the Seven Years‘ War in the middle of the 18th century. This new work offers a unique combination of opulent visual documentation and scientific analysis, making it an indispensable reference work for museums, auction houses, and the art and the antiques trade. Excellent!! The price of €179,90 is for the 2 volumes!!!
