Exactly!
It is a beautiful set - I have purchased it recently from Offizin Neckel.
Some of the set's figures:

Hi Rick:


I believe the figure represents Rene II, Duke of Lorraine. The figure is part of a large series originally edited by Raoul Gerard. Now the moulds are with Neckel. Painted versions of these figures, by Mr. Bistulfi, are featured in the current issue of the BFFS Journal.

Can anyone please help me identify the producer/editor of this figure, marked K26 and engraved by Ludwig Frank?  Does it represent a specific individual?  Have I dated it correctly as being from the mid- to late 15th century?   Thank you in advance.


Kann man bitte den Herausgeber dieser Figure, mit K26 auf dem Fußbrett und von Ludwig Frank graviert, identifizieren?  Soll sie eine bestimmte Persönlichkeit darstellen?  Habe ich die Epoche als Mitte bis Spät 15. Jahrhundert richtig geschätzt?  Danke im Voraus.
