Diirer and his school, and has been exhibited since 1901 under the name of Beham. Similar leaves,

The companion drawing of St. Sebald, with the other Nuremberg shield, the “ Jungfernadler,” is
at Prague, in the collection of Adalbert, Ritter von Lanna, who acquired it at the Weigel sale. The
accompanying reduced reproduction has been made from a facsimile etched by J. C. Loedel, which
appeared as Plate 19 in “ Handzeichnungen beriihmter Meister aus der Weigel’schen Kunstsammlung,”
published by Rudolph Weigel, Leipzig, 1854—1861. The connexion of the two drawings has not
hitherto been recognised, nor has either, to my knowledge, been attributed before to Beham.
