My latest framed engraving, a woodcut die made in 1508, and reprinted in 1922 from the original woodcuts dies used in 1508, the woodcut dies were acquired by the Derschau family.
Also on the above framed engraving. It's a rare print. It's a very interesting set, because not all of the engravings were available with the Berlin Museum.
They had only the left and the right print.
The middle prints were not with the museum till it got to Derschau Collection.
The set is stamped with the seal of the Derschau Collection at the back of each paper and is framed with double glass to see both sides.
