About the Website:

The name of the website, Folio CIII, is derived from the page number of a leaf from the Nuremberg Chronicle. The Nuremberg Chronicle is a book that chronicles the history of the world published in 1493. The text was written by Hartmann Schedel and illustrated with 1,809 woodcuts by Michel Wolgemut. While writing my college honors thesis on the Nuremberg Chronicle, I fell in love with this book’s marvelous woodcuts. My favorite image was of a knight on his horse that appears on folio ciii verso (or the back of page 103) of the Latin version of the Chronicle. I named my website after this folio because it holds a special place in my heart. It is a beautiful reminder of the first truly original research I ever completed. In addition, the images in the Chronicle have been artistically inspiring in my own printmaking.
