Hallo, dear Michael.Thanks for answear. May be You are right, but the image is too arbitrary, imprecise and sketchy. So everything is possible ...

there are mistake in the title of authors photos. I think that it is a late 15 century but not a late 14 century

Brilliant, Alexander,

Thanks a lot for sharing these!

And: you're right of course, these are can be dated to ca. 1470-80.

Best,
Michael
