DANIEL HOPFER
The Last Judgment.

Etching, circa 1525. 312x455 mm; 12 1/4x17 3/4 inches, thread margins. First state (of 2). A superb, richly-inked impression of this large, early etching, with very strong contrasts and no sign of wear.

Provenance: Max Williams, New York, with the label.

We have found only 6 other early, first state impressions at auction, consistent with the current impression, in the past 30 years. Bartsch 15.
