This is not allowed, so rewrite: Der Tewrdannck, a 1517 German verse romance of chivalric adventures of the knight Tewrdannck, commissioned by Emperor Maximilian I and printed in Nuremberg with woodcut illustrations by Hans Burgkmair and Hans Leonhard Schäufelein for a courtly readership. The woodcuts, hand-coloured with a sheet of Gothic text beneath each scene, show armoured riders, castle gates and combat in a narrative sequence a designer could draw on for medieval costume, armour and heraldic framing.
