Item Overview

Description

Woodcut, 19,6 x 14,5 cm, laid paper, signed in block with monogram "HS with the shovel" (trimmed just outside border). - Christ on the cross surrounded by saints and martyrs. Hans Schäufelein (1480-1540) was heavily influenced by Dürer in whose studio he worked from 1503. He signed with his monogram and a small shovel - a punning reference to his name Schäufel. His prints and drawings provide an important link in the spread of the Dürer-style to Augsburg and Nördlingen. This woodcut is also one of the rare occasions where a woodcut print is not only signed by the designer, but also has the mark "M" of the woodcutter included at the center left cloud. Illustration to Johann Geiler von Kaisersberg "Schiff der Penitenz", Augsburg by Johann Otmar in 1514. Very clear and early impression. With Gothic letterpress on verso. - Ref. German Hollstein 807. - G. Bartrum, "German Renaissance Prints 1490-1550", London 1995, p. 148.
