DANIEL HOPFER
The Crucifixion.

Etching, circa 1525. 345x217 mm; 135/8x85/8 inches. First state (of 3), before the Funck number and the inscription in the lower margin. Small shield watermark. With thread margins or trimmed on the plate mark, soft vertical and horizontal fold visible mainly on the verso. A very good impression of this extremely scarce early state.

We have found only 2 other impressions in this state at auction in the past 20 years. Bartsch 14; Hollstein 19.
