<p>[QUOTE=&quot;McAdder, post: 9433616, member: 7942&quot;]Really great woodcuts, but your attribution to Springinklee is not correct.</p><p><br /></p><p>Koberger and Saccon published many bibles with woodcuts from 1512 until the 1520s. First with woodcuts loosly based on the famaous Malermi Bible from 1490, in 1519 most of those woodcuts were replaced by woodcuts from Schön and Springinklee. The woodcut by Springinklee is shown here <a href="https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1927-0614-288" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1927-0614-288" rel="nofollow">https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1927-0614-288</a>.</p><p>The original version from 1512 looks a bit different too. in the 1520s Jean Marechal published bibles which have woodcuts very similar to the cuts of the 1512 version of Koberger. I found your woodcut with the same border and defect&nbsp; in my bible printed by Marechal in 1527. You have to be very careful with illustrations, there are many copies, most not as good as the original and not as valuable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
