Hello!
At a junk shop today I found what appeared to be 6 framed foolscap-sized
(~19.5 x 10 inches) color reprints of "Jagdbuch des Herzogs Johann Casimir
von Sachsen-Coburg" (The hunting book of Duke Johann Casimir of
Saxe-Coburg). Upon cleaning, I discovered a second print under each of the
top ones, for a total of 12 (January thru December). The prints have names
like "Digging for badgers" and "Hunting Feast".
A paper on the back of the reprints says the original was done between
1639-1646, probably by Wolfgang Birckner (b. 1580).
I was wondering if anyone has heard of this book before?
And yes, if anyone is interested, I'll scan them (but each illus. will have
to be in 2 parts).
Regards,
Cindy
