Dodgson, Campbell. Catalogue of early German and Flemish woodcuts preserved in the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum, 1903 volume 2, page 162 "Woodcuts by Weiditz" (Two large series of woodcuts ... were designed by Weiditz towards 1520 for the publishers Grimm and Wirsung. A number of these were published in "Devotissimae meditations de vita Jesu Christi." Selections from the remainder were used sparingly ... during the following 20 years, but the majority saw the light for the first time in 1551, when they were published by Engenolff at Frankfurt in two books "Novi Testamenti Jesu Christi Historia effigiata" and "Sanctorum et Martyrum Christi Icones.")
