A masterful etching by Daniel Hopfer, one of the pioneers of the printmaking medium, this rare second state impression of *Saint George Slaying the Dragon* (circa 1520) depicts the legendary Christian knight in dynamic combat with a fearsome beast. The composition showcases Hopfer's characteristic bold, decorative linework, a technique refined from his expertise as an ornamental armor engraver. Printing with selectively wiped plate tone, this fine impression bears the Funck number '11' at lower left, adding to its historical significance and rarity.
