The Nativity
engraving
before 1474
on laid paper, without watermark
a superb, early impression
printing very sharply and evenly, with remarkable clarity even in the finest shading and the densely engraved areas, to a great sculptural effect
with touches of burr on the trunk of the stable and elsewhere, and pronounced inky relief
trimmed to or just inside the platemark but retaining a fillet of blank paper outside the borderline on all sides
in very good condition
Plate & Sheet: 6 ½ x 6 ½ in. (165 x 165 mm.)
