Jamnitzer : alle erhaltenen Goldschmiedearbeiten, verlorene Werke, Handzeichnungen
A 1920 German catalogue raisonné by art historian Marc Rosenberg, published in Frankfurt by Joseph Baer, gathering every surviving goldsmith work by the Nuremberg Jamnitzer family, lost pieces, and drawings for scholars and collectors of decorative metalwork. The photographs show silver and gilt vessels in dark studio light: a tall centrepiece fountain with a female figure supporting a bowl, a ewer with figural relief and a dragon-like handle, and an architectural tiered fountain drawing. A designer can take the ornate, sculptural layering of cast figures, scrollwork and strapwork that the Jamnitzers built into their metal forms.
