Biography:
Virgil Solis hailed from Nuremberg, becoming a master in 1539. Although he was a self-proclaimed painter, he is known for his work as a printmaker and book illustrator. He created prints based on German and Italian master paintings and also produced biblical and decorative woodcuts that were published in eleven editions from 1562 to 1606. Other decorative artists often used his prints as models for furniture, architecture, jewelry and other crafts. His woodblocks and plates were printed by their owners after his death and until the 1650’s.
