A Tournament by Lucas Cranach. Black and white illustration of a chaotic scene. The scene depicts a large crowd gathered in a courtyard or town square. The crowd is made up of people on foot and on horseback. Many are holding spears. There are several buildings in the background, with archways and windows. Some people are standing in the windows watching the scene. The ground is made up of large stones. People are wearing medieval-style clothing, including hats, cloaks, and tunics. Horses are present, some with riders, others without. The illustration is highly detailed, with many lines and textures. The style is reminiscent of woodcut printing. The overall mood appears to be one of excitement and energy.
