Illustrations to Luther's Catechism (BM 1882,0812.363)
Summary
The Creation; God blessing the universe (consisting of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden framed by a circular firmament with the Sun, Moon and Stars), four winds in the corners. Very good impression without letterpress on verso, may be a proof for an illustration to Martin Luther, 'Catechismus Für die gemeine Pfarrherr und Prediger', Frankfurt: Weygand Han, 1550.
