the woodcut was published many times. At first, it was published as an independent print, without text; later, in 1517 and in 1524, it was an illustration, a part of different editions; in the end of the 16th century, it was published a number of times without text. This impression is a late one, without text. It is dated according to Meder (М. 183, 3, a)
