Leben der ausgezeichnetsten Maler, Bildhauer und Baumeister, von Cimabue bis zum Jahre 1567
Vasari's Lives of the most excellent painters, sculptors and architects, from Cimabue to 1567, edited by Förster and Schorn and published in 1846 in German, drawn from the Heidelberg University Library copy. The four oval portrait busts of bearded men in profile and three-quarter view are cut as fine white-line woodcut hatching within oval frames, a compact model for designers working on historical portrait medallions, engraved vignettes, or period-style character heads.
