The image depicts a Jewish High Priest, adorned in majestic robes and exuding an aura of wisdom and spirituality. This artwork is housed at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The Liber Chronicarum, also known as the Nuremberg Chronicle or Schedelsche Weltchronik, is an extraordinary historical account of world events authored by Hartmann Schedel himself.
