 His best known print is the chiaroscuro "Skull Within an Ornamental Frame", "by far his most impressive" and "one of the most powerful [images] of the German Renaissance", which is the only one for which there is evidence of dating, as it is copied in a book of 1512.Four of his chiaroscuro prints are somewhat ostentatiously classical, two on the very obscure subjects of "Alcon Slaying the Serpent" and "Pyrgoteles" (a famous Ancient Greek gem-carver), as well the better known ones of "Pyramus and Thisbe" and "Orpheus".They show Italianate influence, especially from the engravings of Marcantonio Raimondi, from whom the figures of Pyramus and Thisbe are directly borrowed.
