The referenoes quoted show where each subject is to be found in the original
Vitruvius in German, published in the year after Flotner’s death, without implying
that these impressions are from the Nuremberg edition. Many of them have the same
descriptive letterpress ditferently set up. No. (17) did not appear in 1548, and is
probably not by Fldtner at all.
Nos. (7) and (8) were iirst published iu RyfFs work on Perspective in 1547, but they
were originally intended for the Vitruvius. (See p. 528, nos. 2, 8.)
iv. DOUBTFUL WORKS. Nos. 33-36.
[33-35.]
Dancers at a Wedding.
B. vii, 267, 103.
The whole of tlris series used to be attributed to Schaufelein. One, however, has
been restored by Dr. Pauli, aud another by myself, to Beham.1 Three remain, which
nre ceriainly not by Schaufelein, and seem to belong to the Nuremberg rather than the
Augsburg school. I suggested the name of “ Pseudo-Beliam ” for these,2 but they are
nearer to Fldtner’s landsknechts.
33. A LADY AND GENTLEMAN. Repr. Hirth, i, 55.
The lady looks round at her cavalier, who holds his cap in his 1.
