| Summary: | This paper focuses on a detailed analysis of the Pictorum aliquot celebrium germaniae inferioris effigies (Antwerp: Quatuor Ventorum, 1572). The book contains 23 engravings representing portraits of Nordic 15th and 16th painters, each accompanied by Latin verses composed by the Flemish humanist Domenicus Lampsonius.
