In No. 1 the heads are intended for David and the author of the Book of Wisdom; in No. 2, for Isaiah and Ezekiel. [Illustration: No. 1.] [Illustration: No. 2.] [Footnote IV-16: The copy of the Bamberg edition in the Wolfenbuttel Library, seen and described by Heineken, Idée Générale, pp. 327-329, contained only twenty-six “histories,” or general subjects.] The subject represented in the following cut, No. 3, forming the centre piece at the top in the arrangement of the original page, is Christ appearing to his disciples after his resurrection. The figure on the right of Christ is intended for St. Peter, and that on his left for St. John. I believe that in no wood-cut, ancient or modern, is Christ represented with so uncomely an aspect and so clumsy a figure. [Illustration: No. 3.] The subject of No. 4 is Joseph making himself known to his brethren; from Genesis, chapter XLV. [Illustration: No. 4.] In No. 5 the subject represented is the Prodigal Son received by his father; from St. Luke, chapter XV. Camus says that the cuts given by him were engraved on wood by Duplaa with the greatest exactitude from tracings of the originals by Dubrena. [Illustration: No. 5.]
