Leben der ausgezeichnetsten Maler, Bildhauer und Baumeister, von Cimabue bis zum Jahre 1567
Vasari's Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors and Architects, edited by Schorn and Förster and published in Stuttgart in 1843, is a German-language collection of artists' biographies drawn from the Heidelberg University Library. Its pictures are small oval woodcut portrait medallions of artists, each a bust in a plain frame with fine parallel hatching, offering a designer a model for period portrait vignettes and oval frames.
