Prints by the Master WA (or Master W with a key) showing Burgundian soldiers

A row of Burgundian archers and footsoldiers, by Master WA of Bruges (active c.1465-85).
Note stakes in front of the archers-although none of the archers seem to carry the mallet required in Charles the Bold's ordinance.
Nearly all these soldiers wear brigandines and visored sallets, two of which may have the company pennant attached (back row, centre and far right). (Private collection)
