The medal displays the year 1520. The original wood model (Staatliche Münzsammlung Munich) allows to identify the year 1537 (MDXXXVII). At that time, Kreler had already left Augsburg for religious reasons (back then and there, anabaptism was illegal) and resided in Strasbourg. The medal may well have been predated to avoid questions about the artist's allegiance to "socially acceptable" religions. |
