Destruction of Jerusalem - Double Incunabula Leaf from the "Nuremberg Chronicle" by Hartmann Schedel, 1493
Destruccio Iherosolime / Jerusalem Zerstorung, double incunabula leaf (LXIIII) from the German edition of Hartmann Schedel's "Nuremberg Chronicle". [Nuremberg: Anton Koberger, 1493].

Hand-drawn additions in two places on the woodcut (small and faded).
Approx. 41.5X57.5 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains and creases (mostly minor). Small tears to margins. Two tears reinforced with adhesive tape on verso. Tears and open tears along the connection between the leaves, repaired, with replacements. Handwritten inscriptions on margins (in German, primarily on verso).
