Posta di Vera Finestra: (“True Window” or “True Royal Window” guard) Fiore Dei Liberi’s term for a stance leading with the left leg and the sword held horizontally out to the right, point aimed at the opponent’s face.

While Fiore only depicts a right-side version, he does list both a left & right Window guard (Posta Fenestrarum dextra and sinixtra).
