Zinna (Tzenna). Press of the Cistercian Monastery. 1492

*A volume described as EXTREMELY RARE by Brunet. The work was probably printed for imperial presents only, and the impression limited to very few copies, the expense having been defrayed by the Emperor Frederick III and his son (afterwards Emperor Maximilian), whose figures (kneeling) are introduced in every border. The woodcuts, as Didot has remarked, are of more archaic type than the contemporary productions of Nürnberg, as indeed might be expected, South Germany being in advance of the North in artistic cultivation.

The indication of place and date of printing are extracted from the prologue. The monastery of Zinna was east of Magdeburg and North of Leipzig. Hain, 11891; Proctor, 3226.
