Description
Hartmann Schedel's Weltchronik, or Chronicle of the World (more commonly known today as the Nuremberg Chronicle, after the German city where it was created), was a groundbreaking encyclopedic work and at the time, the most richly illustrated book ever printed in Europe. This complete facsimile reproduces a rare hand-colored copy, faithful to the original in every detail, with an extensive booklet.
