[857] Falk, ibid., p. 13. Falk also quotes (p. 14) a noteworthy observation of Luthmer’s (“Zeitschr. für christl. Kunst,” 9, p. 5): “The close of the 15th century was the time when the Decalogue, as the starting-point for Confession, was most frequently commentated, described and depicted pictorially. For those unable to read, tables with the Commandments luridly pictured hung in the churches, schools and religious institutions, and the books on this subject were abundantly illustrated with woodcuts.”
