1590 Nuremberg Carnival Manuscript Shared from UCLA Archives

Original: From Schembartbuch aus dem Besitz des Sebastian Schedel, UB of California Coll. 170 Ms 351 (1590). Source: UCLA Digital

A digitised page from a 1590 Schembartbuch, a carnival book once owned by Sebastian Schedel and held at the University of California, is circulating among history and costume enthusiasts. The Schembartbücher record the elaborate masked costumes and processions of Nuremberg's pre-Reformation carnival, and digitisation projects have made these vivid 16th-century illustrations freely viewable.

Why now: Digitised rare manuscripts of Nuremberg's famous carnival costumes draw interest from history, art and fashion communities.
