Text Appearing Before Image:

A chance hintof his period and residence is supplied by a plate, whichis signed with his monogram, and represents the arms ofthe Frankfurt families of Rohrbach and Holzhauscn ; itmay be assumed to have been made in record of amarriage between members of these families in the year1466.
