Vertaling bekijkenHartmann Schedel / Michael Wolgemut/ Wilhelm Pleydenwurff - The Nuremberg Chronicle (Liber Chronicarum) - 1493
Nr. 88530077
Original incunabulum leaf CLXXXVI (186) from the Nuremberg Chronicle of Hartmann Schedel, the first Latin edition from 1493.
An incunabulum (cradle print) is a book printed in Europe before 1 January 1501, when the printing press was still in its infancy, and of which the text is set in movable type. They are now rarely seen on the market.
The Nuremberg Chronicle (Liber Chronicarum) by Hartmann Schedel is one of the most famous and best illustrated incunabula. The beautiful woodcuts were made by Michael Wohlgemut (1434/37-1519) and his stepson Wilhelm Pleydenwurff (1450-1494), a teacher of Albrecht Dürer. Dürer probably also contributed to the execution of many of the woodcuts for this incunabulum.
The beautifully coloured woodcuts on the recto side show these illustrations:
1. Heinricus, the second emperor of this name, a duke of Bavaria.
2. Conrad the Second, an emperor
3. A dreadful comet, flaming back and forth
4. A full moon is also portrayed
On the verso side, the Genealogy of Saint Henry The Emperor is shown on the entirety of the page!
This is not a facsimile edition, but an original leaf printed in the 15th century - so 531 years old!
Rare in coloured version.
Dimensions: 47,2 x 31,7 cm
Good condition, a few small brown spots in white margins.
