Lot description
Woodcut, 24,5 x 19 cm, laid paper with watermark (Gothic P, similar to Briquet 8562), unsigned (underlaid, trimmed to borderline, some creases, several old repairs on verso, sm. brown stain at upper right).
Rare and intriguing woodcut of a rich young man and an old money changer in a Renaissance interior. Most likely a moralising illustration on the vices of greed and pride.
