After the first large-format edition of the Bible (Neue Künstliche
Figuren, Basel, Guarin, 1576), the Schaffhausen artist Tobias
Stimmer (1539 - 1584) produced a pictorial Bible in small format
with the publisher Thomas Guarin in 1578. This Vulgate is
characterised by the artistic understanding of the late
Renaissance and shows the full talent of the Upper Rhine artist.
