Proof impression, without text on the verso, before the edition of 1511. Dürer created the title of his series "The Life of the Virgin" only at the end of the year 1510, just before the text edition of the whole work in 1511. As a result, proof impressions without text are of great rarity. Above, below and on the left uncut, on the right trimmed on the border. Very rare.
