Burgmair (Hans) after Adam Bartsch

Plate 92 from ‘The Triumphal Procession of Emperor Maximilian I', wood cut, slight toning, light foxing, handling creases, marginal chipping, [Vienna, A. Schmidt, 1796]

*** The plates to form a frieze celebrating the achievements of Maximilian I were first cut in 1526, but subsequently lost or forgotten. They were only rediscovered, in two locations in Vienna, around 1777, with the more famous edition being by Adam von Bartsch, around 1796.
