Portrait of Moritz Welzer von Eberstein by Hans Maler zu Schwaz dated 1524 https://www.wga.hu/html_m/m/maler/welzer1.html

Pattern from Ein new kunstlich Modelbuch by Peter Quentel. These same patterns show up in Schonesperger and the other early books and continue to be republished. They are much older and demonstrate one of the great things about the books, documenting motifs that were already in use. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/354658
