It's good to look at the pictures and start to see what's there is not what you expect. One of my favorite resources is J.R. Hale's Artists & Warfare in the Renaissance. ISBN-13: 978-0300048407 http://www.amazon.com/Artists-Warfare-Renaissance-J-Hale/dp/0300048408 It's both an art book and a history book, and the details even in the large scenes are amazing. Excellent sources for both German and Italian soldiers and their women, plus nobles and some pageant stuff.
