1750B4SB1E23SY47Nuremberg 1750. Ca. 39.5 x 71.5 cm. Kept in a white passe-partout. One large etching. Large etching with a spectacular night view of a fireworks display during the Nuremberg peace festival. This event took place in Nuremberg in July 1650 to celebrate the end of the Thirty Years' War 1618-1648 one of the most devastating conflicts in European history. The festival was intended as a sign of hope for a better future in Europe and particularly Germany. The present etching may have been printed to spread this message of peace.The Thirty Years' War started as a civil war within the Holy Roman Empire but eventually became a wider European affair. Primarily fought in present day Germany however it brought disease and starvation to the region and depopulated large areas. After five years of negotiation a peace treaty was finally signed in October 1648. Any remaining unresolved issues were negotiated during a major diplomatic congress held in Nuremberg between May 1649 and July 1650. When the negotiations were concluded a peace festival was held which included a large fireworks show. The present etching shows this spectacular display with the numerous skyrockets shot from all sides of the castle. Remarkable details are the burning statue in the middle and the men with flaming swords surrounding it.The image was engraved after designs by German artists Peter Troschel ca. 1620-after 1667 and Michael Herr 1591-1661. In was first printed in 1650 and included a title at the top and a legend at the bottom. The present version most likely dates from the middle of the 18th century but has been significantly enlarged especially lengthwise. These new proportions make the image even more spectacular.The work has been folded in the past the lower part of the left margin has been restored insect droppings in a small area on the left side of the head margin not affecting the etched image. Otherwise in good condition. unknown

159866701598. 22 leaves including some blanks or pages ruled in ink for entries. Agenda format 315 x 100 mm. stitched as issued uncut. Nuremberg: 1598.<br/> <br/> A fascinating document of a type that rarely survives: the manuscript account book for the spring 1598 Leipzig fair of Hans Straub I or the Elder 1541-1610 the prominent Nuremberg gold- and silversmith alderman and son-in-law of Wenzel Jamnitzer the best-known German goldsmith of his time. The first leaf bears Straub’s hallmark interwined initials “HS†over an arrow pointing upward within a plain shield & also containing the inscription “No. 72â€. Our manuscript sheds important light on the business relations in the late 16th century between the Nuremberg goldsmiths and their trade at the Leipzig fairs.<br/> <br/> Our account book is a list of sales orders and expenditures of Nuremberg goldsmith Hans Straub the Elder during the Leipzig Easter fair held in May 1598. While Straub is not expressly named he can be identified by his hallmark on the first leaf. At the fair trade was done in goblets rings knife-sheaths cutlery jewelry gemstones etc. Several business partners are named including the Nuremberg goldsmiths Heinrich Hahn Haan David Lauer and Paulus Koch. As an example of a transaction we see that the council of Halle paid over 33 florins for a goblet.<br/> <br/> In 1596 Straub was elected Alderman of the Artisans the most elevated and honorable office to which a Nuremberg artisan could aspire. Straub retained this position until his death in 1610. In 1569 he married Anna daughter of the famous goldsmith Wenzel Jamnitzer. On his father-in-law’s death in 1585 Straub inherited his casting molds and used them extensively in his own creations. Despite his long period of activity relatively few pieces made by Hans Straub have survived see Nürnberger Goldschmiedekunst 1541-1868 2007 ed. by Karin Tebbe et al. Vol. I p. 409.<br/> <br/> In fine condition.<br/> <br/> â§ The mark is similar to Marc Rosenberg Der Goldschmiede Merkzeichen Frankfurt 1925 Vol. III no. 3969. unknown
