Vomp, Tirol, Austria. 38x56cm Watercolour on Bockingford extra rough, 420g. Every second year there is an medeaval reanactmant at the Mitterhart castle. The "Stählerner Haufen 1499" is organizing it. http://www.staehlerner-haufen.com This gathering of „Landsknechte“ who had been in service of the Imperial House of Habsburg and supported the lines of Tyrolean and Bavarian knights. I made a couple of sketches with watersolubel graphit pens and developed my watercolopur painting from that.
