designs (see Lange, pp. 15-17). It is the latter, very scantily repre-
sentecl in this collection, that constitute Flotner’s cliief claim to
consideration as a pioneer of the Eenaissance in Germany. His
illustrations and separate woodcuts, not of an ornamental character,
are often coarse both in subject and execution.
There are important collections of Flotner’s woodcuts at Berlin,
Dresden and Erlangen.
The woodcuts in this collection fall into the following groups :—
i. (nos. 1-25).
Subjects from various series.
ii. (nos. 26-29).
Single subjects.
iii. (nos. 30-32).
Playing-cards, ornaments aud illustrations of the works of Piivius.
iv. (nos. 33-36).
Doubtful works.
The arrangement within these groups is mainly chronological.
