It is included in a collection of natural history drawings, mostly by Roeting, some by friends, assembled by his nephew Michael Rotenbeck (1568-1623), with the grandiloquent title of Theatrum Naturae and dated 1615. It shows that Durer had no monopoly. The text is an abbreviation of the Galle inscription or legend. In the Berlin Museum fur Naturkunde. |
