The moment shown is a herald lifting a trumpet for one more call, the kind of ceremonial blast that announced a challenge, a tournament, or a knight's arrival. Heralds in chivalric tales carried the rules of combat and the honor of the lists, so a repeated fanfare signals that something important is about to happen. The title is a line from the text it illustrates, which suggests the picture was made to accompany a specific passage rather than to stand alone. Readers curious about the scene may want to find the source and see which moment the artist chose.
