Carousing Landsknechte

Catalog No. 377

Pottery or stoneware, relief, 0.5L, pewter lid, signed �GT� (Gustav Thinwibel).

Landsknechte were feudal serfs used for military purposes by their masters. These �soldiers� were often traded between landowners and were, in a sense, the equivalent of modern mercenaries, with the important difference that they were not free to choose their employer.
