This is a hand-colored woodcut print from 1541, titled 'Ein Wunderbarlich geschicht Wie. Jes zu Lanestat kunft Nyst wegs von Kirnberg/geschehen worden ist.' (A Wonderful Story of How Jesus Came to Lanestat Near Kirnberg). The scene depicts a fantastical event occurring over a landscape with two towns on either side. In the center, a large, winged angel descends from a radiant sun, seemingly carrying a small figure or object. The angel is surrounded by swirling clouds and celestial light. Below, on the left, a man in a long robe gestures upwards towards the angel, while two other figures stand beside him, also looking up. On the right, a similar group of three figures mirror this pose, observing the event. The landscape features rolling hills, trees, and bodies of water. The towns are depicted with castles, towers, and buildings. The style is characteristic of early woodcut prints, with bold lines and simplified forms. Below the image is a block of German text, likely detailing the story depicted. The print has a slightly aged and worn appearance, with some discoloration and fading of the colors.
