A terrible photo from our project trip to "The Black Atlantic" but still thinking about the way in which the medium of the 'album' changes the way we can think about Wenceslaus Holler's engraved character studies of Black Africans: what does it mean to cut up, collect, and assemble in this way?

Oh this is amazing! When I saw the 1520 image, I felt that the character was personified strongly enough to have been a real individual, but obviously without this kind of curatorial detective work, you never know... Beautiful!

Germany? Ask to make an appointment with the chief archivist - they are researchers as well as custodians and will have suggestions you haven't thought of. Spend time with paper old/finding aids, ask for them if they're no longer out on shelves. You are going to have *so* much fun.
