Der Hungern Chronica is a 1534 German-language history of Hungary by János Thuróczy, printed in Vienna at the expense of publisher Hansen Metzker for a general reading public. Its woodcut pictures show armoured battle scenes with crowded spearmen, shields and fallen soldiers, packed into framed strips above the text, which a designer could take as models for dense crowd composition and sixteenth-century armour detail.
