Single leaf with a woodcut on each recto and verso from Ulrich Pinders Der beschlossen gart des rosenkrantz marie [Nuremberg: 1505]. Leaf numbered cclxxv [275]. Recto cut shows God pulling Eve from Adams rib. Verso shows a soldier about to die at the hand of other soldiers. Minor edge wear and a bit of faint damp stain to top margin but overall an excellent example. Full leaf at 11.25 x 7.75 inches. Woodcuts are 2.75 x 3 inches. One of the most beautiful German woodcut books of the 16th century and the first with illustrations by Hans Schaufelein. Other artists credited to the work are Hans Baldung, Hans Suss von Kulmbach and Wolf Traut. Durer was once attributed but recent scholarship denies that. The text is a prayer-book for the members of the Rosenkranzbruderschaft [The brotherhood of the rosary] founded 1475 at Cologne, a community brotherhood thats goal was to deepen the devotion of broad masses of people through the prayer of the Christ and the Virgin Mary.
