Master of Haarlem (1483-1486 Fl.)Attr. - The Wise and Foolish Virgins / Description: The foolish virgins with a lamp without oil before a door, inside the wise virgins with a lamp holding oil. This is an old colored incunabula woodcut from an early edition of Ludolphus de Saxonia, "Dat Boeck vanden leven ons lief heeren Ihesu Christi". The first edition was published in 1487 in Antwerp, followed by the 1488 edition in Delft, 1495 and 1499 in Zwolle and again in Antwerp in 1510. Amongst the earliest artist who worked at the project we mention: The Master of Haarlem, The second Gouda woodcutter and The first Antwerp woodcutter. The woodcut here on auction is identical in style as the ones attributed by the Rijksmuseum to The Master of Haarlem and dated 1483-1486. They do not have this woodcut and I did not find it elsewhere. It is a real early woodcut in History and precedes the more common woodcuts from the Ludolphus editions of the turn of the century. / Dimensions: 9,20 x 13,00 cm / Condition: Excellent impression with unbroken woodcut lines, mounted on a laid paper collection sheet. Nice period hand coloring. Gothic Dutch letterpress on the backside in two columns. / Literature: Conway (1884) and in "The guilder compass" (1951). Botke, K. --- Prof. Henri Defoer, history of the woodcuts from the Ludolphus editions. ( Jaarboek voor Nederlandse boekgeschiedenis 24/2017) / Medium: Colored woodcut /Circa: 1483-1486 260
