Looking for reproductions of combat manual illustrations

Postby Joshua Pinchuk » Thu Nov 17, 2011 2:57 pm

Hello All.

Wondering if someone could point me in the right direction.

I'm looking for art quality reproductions of combat manual illustrations (medieval or renaissance)

Apart from art.com or posters.com I haven't had any luck finding anything.
Anything the folks here might be able to suggest would be welcome.

Thanks in advance

Regards, Joshua

As far as higher resolution,Paulus Hector Mair's manual has some excellent artwork:

One of my favorites aesthetically, the woodcuts from Joachim Meyer's manual are very impressive:
