Title: Pictures of armies for the reconquest of Granada 1490's
Post by: Im Not Spartacus! on May 01, 2025, 09:34:49 AM

Fellow Laffers,

I wondered if any of you might provide some images of typical troop types (Spanish, Nasrid etc) from the reconquest of Granada.

Thank you kindly in advance

I believe there is an Osprey Men-at-Arms volume on the topic.

Yes thank you - would also love to see any other pictures/images that people have found apart from the established books

The so-called Pastrana Tapestries can be of some interest I believe. You can also look for Desperta Ferro (https://www.despertaferro-ediciones.com/revistas/numero/guerra-de-granada-desperta-ferro-aym-34/) zine, there's plenty of information on the subject and history of region, but everything is in Spanish.

There are a few, along with a campaign book as well.

Where are you? I have just recently picked up the campaign book in a charity shop.
