Collection of full-scale drawings (some painted in color) of cavessons, curbs, and bits, perhaps by Veit Forster, teacher of Mang Seutter, who published a collection of engravings of these types of equipment in 1584. Forster and Seutter were stablemasters for Marcus Fugger, owner of this manuscript.
