Flittner, Johann, fl. 1619-1625, Murner, Thomas, 1475-1537. Schelmenzunft · 1620 · Francofurti : Apud Iacobu[m] de Zetter · 39 pictures

Nebulo nebulonum is a satirical Latin book of 1620 printed at Frankfurt by Jacob de Zetter, written by Johann Flittner and drawing on Thomas Murner's Schelmenzunft, aimed at a learned readership exposing the tricks of rogues. Its small engravings show scheming figures in period dress, each framed in a plain vignette with a clear gesture or prop, which a designer might use for compact character studies or as an early-modern emblem-style reference for deception and roguery.
