This is a 1666 publication set from the Vienna court, with music by Antonio Bertali and engravings by Gerard Bouttats and others, recording the wedding festivities of Emperor Leopold I and Infanta Margarita Teresa of Spain. The pictures are small etched plates of horsemen and footmen in ordered formations, arranged in rows, circles and open lines, which a designer could use as a reference for choreographed pattern, spacing and rhythm in crowd layouts.
