  6. The mistaken attribution to Durer of an illustration showing the burning of Jan Hus on this web page byteseu.com/1168650/

    As I looked at the pictures, I realized that I have hardly ever seen any Hussite art. These Jena Codex illustrations are amongst the rare examples to survive, because the codex was taken to Germany in the second half of the 16th century and thereby escaped the destruction of Hussite imagery that accompanied the recatholicization of Bohemia.
