Nicolaas Hogenberg's 'Emperor Charles V in procession after his coronation by Pope Clement VII at Bologna', 1530
The Bolognese banner bearers & infantry on plates 4 & 5 are probably Italian but wearing classically influenced costume for ceremonial duties.
The guards on plates 26 & 27 wear sajones which are typically Italian. These may be the Pope's Swiss guard.
Plates 33 & 34 have Landsknechts & Spanish infantry under Antonio de Leyva. Which are which?
