Fraw Marien zu Ungern unnd Behem Koniginn, Wittib &. zugericht und volnbracht Fifteen woodcuts prepared for Teuerdank, issued in 1517, and which was issued again in 1553 by Egenolff who had acquired the blocks and made use of a selection in this publication. Earlier attributed largely to H. Schäufelein whose monogram is on some woodcuts. None of the present woodcuts bear that monogram. Frontispiece, duplicated on C3v, was prepared after 1520, and is reported to have appeared first in a 1689 ed. of Teuerdank. Cf. Musper and Holstein who attribute it to H. Burgkmair, as no. 120. No. 105 (unsigned) on D2v, is by Schäufelein according to Musper. All others are apparently by L. Beck except the last by Burgkmair [?] from Petrarch's Von der Artzney bayder Glück, 1532 (also reissued by Egenolff, 1551-1584). C. Dodgson in Cat. of German and Flemish woodcuts in the BM, gives evidence that the "Petrarch Master" was Hans Weidnitz II. The particular woodcut is however not described in either artist's BM inventory Musper, M. Th. in Kaiser Maximilians Theuerdank : Kommentar Hollstein, F.W.H. German Seidlitz, W.V.
