Nicely done research Michael!

As always I am fascinated by your remarkable scholarship and everlasting enthusiasm for the subject

. I have noticed that the detail from the Battle of Pavia painting you uploaded seems like a great source of iconograpic evidence for our field of study. As of yet I have only found a low-res image of this marvelous work here http://www.wikigallery.org/wiki/pain...attle-of-Pavia
I was wondering if you have access to this beauty in its full glory and could perhaps share it with us, or alternatively point us to the right source...

Much obliged,
Samuel
