Image description

Falkenjagd. Die Falkenjagd, eine altorientalische Sitte, war ein Vergnugen des Adels. Der Falkenjager (Falkner) ritt mit dem durch Lederkappe geblendeten Falken auf der rechten Faust, die durch dicken Lederhandschuh gegen die scharfen Vogelkrallen geschutzt war, ins Jagdrevier. Dort warf er den von Kappe und Riemen befreiten Falken in die Luft, der sich nach kurzer Orientierung bald auf die Beute sturzte. Translation: Falconry. Falcon hunting, an ancient oriental custom, was a pleasure for the nobility. The falconer (falconer) rode into the hunting ground with the falcon blinded by a leather cap on his right fist, which was protected against the sharp bird claws by thick leather gloves. There he threw the falcon, freed from cap and belt, into the air, which, after a short orientation, soon pounced on the prey. Illustration for Deutsche Kulturbilder, 1400-1900 (Cigaretten-Bilderdienst Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, 1934).
