Just a comment. You claim that Stig Andersen is the man on the brown horse. I guess you won’t find many Danish experts sharing that opinion:-)

Also look at this sketch made by Otto Bache before the painting in speaking:

Note the man on the white horse. His shield is marked with the star of “Hvide”.

Which is historically incorrect; Stig Andersen was most likely not of "Hvide" family and never used the name or the seven pointed star. At least one of his three wives was of "Hvide" heritage, and some of his descendants later took the "Hvide" name and adopted the seven pointed star.
