Hans Sebald Beham biography

Barthel Beham was the older brother of painter, Hans Sebald Beham, a prolific printmaker who produced over 2,000 prints during his career. He focused on tiny engravings, placing him in the German printmaking school called the Little Masters. Hans Sebald Beham also worked with larger woodcuts and designed playing cards, wallpaper, coats of arms, and patterns for other artists. He illuminated a prayer book and created a painting for Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg. Along with his brother and Georg Pencz, Hans Sebald Beham was banished from Nuremberg in 1525 due to his beliefs that opposed Lutheranism, the dominant religion of the city. After returning to the city, Beham was exiled again for publishing a book that was believed to be plagiarized from one of Albrecht Durer's writings.
