- Published/Created:
- ca. 1560-1588
- Notes:
- The Swiss Protestant clergyman Johann Jakob Wick (1522-1588) collected broadsheets and wrote a chronicle illustrated with coloured drawings on contemporary events - such as comets, earthquakes and floods - that he deemed strange and peculiar. The drawings are contemporary visual testimonies about witches, their crimes and their executions in the period 1560-1588.
