Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528) (after)
The Lady on horseback and the lansquenet. Burin. 77x107mm. Copy of the eponymous engraving of 1497 (Bartsch 82; Meder 84). Fine proof on thin (Italian?) laid paper, trimmed on the plate cut and flush with the base of the monogram. Slight traces of folding. Small thinning at right edge on verso, with corresponding foxing on recto. Ex-coll. J. Manheimer (Lugt 1840d). 

This highly misleading copy comes from the collection of Julian Manheimer (1871-1947), who lived in Berlin and died in Zurich, where he took refuge in 1939. According to the entry in the Frits Lugt / Fondation Custodia database, "He was particularly interested in prints by Dürer and Rembrandt, but his choice was not the most severe". This may explain why he took this misleading copy to be the master's original etching.
