About Willibald Imhoff

  • Willibald Imhoff (born 16 November 1519 in Nuremberg, Germany, died 25 January 1580 in Patrizier, Germany) was an art collector and the grandson of Willibald Pirckheimer. In 1499 Pirckheimer was chosen by the German City Council to command their contingent of troops in the Imperial army during the Swabian War against the Swiss.
  • On his return he was presented with a gold cup by the City.
  • This may be referred to in the artist Albrecht Dürer's engraving Nemesis of about 1502.
  • After Pirckheimer's death in 1560, Imhoff bought the remaining Dürer collections and papers.
