Summary
[edit]DescriptionMarginal Drawings for The Praise of Folly (2), by Hans Holbein the Younger.jpg |
English: Three Marginal Drawings in a copy of "The Praise of Folly" by Erasmus of Rotterdam. Pen and black ink oxidised to brown, Kunstmuseum Basel.
Hans Holbein and his brother, Ambrosius, drew 82 marginal sketches in the copy of The Praise of Folly owned by classical scholar Oswald Myconius, who planned to show the result to the author, his friend Desiderius Erasmus. They include the first works by Hans Holbein to survive intact. Most of the sketches are by Hans Holbein, whose style and left-handed hatching identify him from Ambrosius. References
