Dr Ludwig Lindenschmidt and the Mainz monument
#10
One HUGE difference is that Dr Mike's version of Lindenschmit's woodcut shows Musius wearing chainmail UNDER his pteruges. Seems he interpretted the tasselation on the ends of the "dags" as chain

He also made the lightining bolts much more angular.

AND he changed the shape of the shield

Interesting.
