Schoch, Mende, Scherbaum, I, 78. Dated “1515” at the bottom center, without the monogram. An excellent proof of this rare engraving in the first state of three and in the d/d variant according to Meder’s cataloging, prior to the cleaning of the plate to remove rust spots, with the framing lines still partially visible and the last digit of the date now barely discernible. Thin laid paper without a watermark, as noted by Meder for this variant. (1) The print is mounted with two stitches at the top within a modern cardboard mat.
