This print, titled "Weighing with a steelyard, 1547" takes us back to the innovative world of medieval Germany. Created by Gaultherius Rivius, this woodcut from his renowned work "Gaultherus Rivius Architecture Mathematischen Kunst" showcases the intersection of architecture, mathematics, and practicality during the Middle Ages. In this circular composition, we see a group of men gathered around a steelyard - a mathematical instrument used for weighing objects. The meticulous attention to detail in depicting each figure highlights their importance in understanding measurements and weights. The artist's skillful use of monochrome adds an air of timelessness to the scene. Nuremberg serves as the backdrop for this intriguing moment frozen in time.
