15 - Tomb of Apaffy György (died in 1635 but the effigy was made in 1660-61), Church of Gyulafehérvár/Alba Iulia, Transylvania, Romania
Unfortunately the sabre on the effigy is heavily damaged, and the photos I found were not very helpful. So this one is just for info. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiboo...ja%2C_1660.png https://hu.wikibooks.org/wiki/F%C3%A...apja,_1660.png |

16 - Two effigies for Illésházy István
The first effigy was erected by Illésházy István himself, his first wife, Anna Erdődy died in 1577. He carved his image as well on the memorial stone because he thought he would rest in the same place where his beloved wife who died at the age of 26. However, nine years after the death of the first woman, István, who was growing in power and wealth, remarried and married the wealthy Countess Katalin Pálffy, the widow of János Krussich. The Katalin survived her husband, who died in 1609, and burried him, not next to the first woman in Bratislava, but in Bazin. Unfortunately, the sabres depicted are not very detailed.

19 - Thököly Sebestyén coat of arms 1572
Note: the sabre looks like it has long quillons. Also, the scabbard has old style fitting (1572 indeed). |
