Teutsche Denkmäler. Erste Lieferung, Enthält die Bilder zum Sächsischen Land- und Lehnrecht
Teutsche Denkmäler, first issue of 1820 published in Heidelberg by Mohr and Winter, reproduces illustrations from the Saxon land and feudal law manuscript, the Sachsenspiegel, for German scholars and antiquarians. The pages are small black-and-white line engravings of figures in rows of framed panels, showing feudal ceremonies, hunting, building, and oath-taking with stiff poses, simple hatching, and lettered labels that a designer could draw on for medieval-style narrative panels.
