專家說明

This exquisitely cut block was executed by Veit Specklin after the design by Holbein.
The woodcut is often found pasted into the 1540 edition of the Complete Works of Erasmus, published by Froben and Episcopius in Basel, where the block still is today, preserved in the Kupferstichkabinett. It was however not only produced as a book illustration, but also as a single-leaf woodcut, probably as a tribute to the great humanist and scholar, following his death in 1536.
