Anyone any information on the coat colours of Brandenburg drummers during this period or where I can find it?
Cheers,
Shayne

Thankyou Friedrich.
I take it that the illustration shows drummers in 'Royal' livery?

Shayne,
not mentioned in the text below, only that it referre's to a Goblin, a wall tapestry, called "The siege of Stralsund 1682" that once was to be found in the 'Berlin Palace' whatever that may be.
I look into it if I fand anything.
Best Wishes,
Günter

Shayne,
The palace does'nt exist anymore only that picture below seems to have survived of the gobelin. I know that it dont show anything of help but I think it's worth:
