The big ball. In 1500, the court of Hertog Albrecht IV in Munich took place, to which this ball also belonged. The Duke himself has been presented with his wife Kunigunde from Austria during the card game. In a large room a group performs elegantly dressed couples a 'Basse Danse', the slow stately dance that was very fashionable in court circles. The musicians are arranged on two galleries: left with flute and large drum, right with trumpets and timp.
