Hartmann Schedel / Michael Wolgemut/ Wilhelm Pleydenwurff - The Nuremberg Chronicle (Liber Chronicarum) - 1493
Original incunabulum woodcut leaf XXXVI (36) 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 of the recto side of Folio XXXVI illustrate three different kings: Tros, Anchises and Laeomedon.
The beautiful city of Troy is depicted, which is located in Asia Minor and founded by King Tros, it was destructed and later rebuilt by King Laomedon; by fortifying it with battlements and a high wall of marble.
This is not a facsimile edition, but an original leaf printed in the 15th century - so 531 years old!
Rare in coloured version. German edition.
Dimensions: 43 x 29 cm
