In 1526 Maximilian's grandson, the Archduke Ferdinand, commissioned Treitzsaurwein to complete and publish 'Der Weisskunig', but this plan was frustrated by Treitzsaurwein's death in 1527. It was not until 1775, after the blocks had been found at Graz, that it was published in book form by Hoffstätter in Vienna.' [BM]
