Der Bettler : Bilder aus der Jugendzeit des Johann Žižka von Trocnow
A German picture book of 1844 by Fr. Eduard Sandtner, published in Prague-area Bohemia, telling the youth of the Hussite commander Jan Žižka in scenes of medieval court and street life. The three plates are engraved in a dense, shaded manner, with a formal ceremony, a domestic exchange, and a crowded street brawl that suggest historical costume and staging for a designer.
