Sebald Beham
Sebald Beham (1500–1550) was a German painter and printmaker, mainly known for his very small engravings. Born in Nuremberg, he spent the later part of his career in Frankfurt. He was one of the most important of the "Little Masters", the group of German artists making prints in the generation after Dürer. His name is often given as Hans Sebald Beham although there is no documentary evidence that he ever used that additional forename. Read more on Wikipedia
