A similar brass barrel, possibly French, three-stage sectioned and more pronouncedly staged, but also ca. 1500-10, with socket for a tiller stock, in excavated condition. Measurements unrecorded but probably ca. 60-70 cm long.
In the museum of Grandson, Switzerland. m Last edited by Matchlock; 8th April 2012 at 08:18 PM. |

Right, the painting is by Jan Joest, in the Nicolai Church Kalkar.
Btw, could you please post the link to this high-rez image? I could not find it on the web. Thanks! A very similar Nuremberg barrel, also in excavated condition, of characteristic length and the breech struck with a Gothic minuscule mark s, is included in an upcoming sale. I will post details here as soon as the auction is done. Best, m Last edited by Matchlock; 13th April 2012 at 08:56 PM. |

Its still there! Don`t search in the thumbnails, they are hardly recognisable.
