About This Item

Small 4to of (39) ll. and one final blank, A-K4 (last blank) ; brown morocco, covers decorated with cold and gilded fillets, spine ribbed decorated, gilded edges (F.Bedford).

135 x 144 mm.

Brunet, II, 780 ; Dodgson II, p. 14 ; Muther 913.

This masterpiece illustrates the passion of Christ with 73 full-page engravings by Schäufelein, a student of Albrecht Durer.

" First edition: others appeared in 1542, 1550.

Title in 10 lines, Latin in roman and German in gothic, with woodcut mark of Schäufelin (IS interlaced, on a large shovel) above the lower line. The book consists of 73 cuts, c. 140 x 102 mm, one on each page with the title in Latin above with Scriptural reference and the German equivalent below.

The series of cuts ends K2 vo…

All the cuts are by Schäufelein except the first (Annunciation) which is probably by a different, though masterly hand: 48 are signed with the IS monogram and shovel, and many are evidently adapted from the larger subjects by Schäufelein published in 1507.

Observe leper's clappers on F3 vo. and H4: view of Jerusalem on H3, showing the mosque of Omar: stocks on I4." (Fairfax Murray, German, 393).

FRENCH

Francfort, Christian Egenolff, 1537.

Petit in-4 de (39) ff. et un dernier blanc, A-K4 (dernier blanc) ; maroquin noisette, plats ornés de filets à froid et dorés, dos à nerfs orné, tranches dorées (F.Bedford).

135 x 144 mm.

Edition originale de ce chef-d'œuvre de Hans Schäufelein (1480-1538), élève et aide d'Albrecht Dürer jusque vers 1505.

Brunet, II, 780 ; Dodgson II, p. 14 ; Muther 913.

Elève et aide jusque vers 1505 d'A. Dürer dont il adopta le style, non sans talent. Son imagination égalait son savoir et ses œuvres sont fort intéressantes. Sa première œuvre connue est la peinture du Retable d'Ober-Sankt-Veit, dont le dessin avait été exécuté par Dürer. Vers 1509, il était dans le Tyrol et à Augsbourg. En 1515, il devint bourgeois de Nördlingen, ce qui paraît lui avoir valu, de la part des magistrats de sa ville natale, l'interdiction d'y revenir. Certains biographes l'y font mourir. Parmi ses peintures, il convient de citer : Le siège de Bethulie (fresque à l'Hôtel de Ville de Nördlingen), une Histoire de Judith (à Nördlingen), le Retable Ziegler (à Nördlingen), La Cène (à la cathédrale d'Ulm), Le Christ mort (à la cathédrale de Nuremberg), Descente de Croix (à l'église Saint-Georges de la même ville), seize panneaux sur le Couronnement de la Vierge (à l'église de Anhaussen). Schäufelein grava peu lui-même ; il exécutait les dessins sur bois. Il a illustré en grande partie le roman du " Theueurdank ".

Ce chef-d'œuvre illustrant la Passion du Christ est orné de 73 gravures à pleine page par Schäufelein, élève d'Albrecht Durer.

" Volume composé de 73 estampes en bois, en belles épreuves, dont 47 sont marquées des lettres I S entrelacées et gravées sur une pelle, monogramme de Hans Schaufelein (Bartsch, VII, 244). " (Catalogue des livres du cabinet de M. Joseph Paelinck, n°80).

Chaque gravure est accompagnée d'une légende en latin et en allemand.
