This print shows a woodcut of a poem by Hans Sachs. It's interesting because the poem was originally printed in 1549, and this print is a rare example of that time. The fact that it's a woodcut also tells us about the printing techniques used back then. You can learn more about similar prints by looking up the work of artist: Solis, Virgil.
