To the Imperial bookkeeper Dionysius Braun. Treitzsaurwein confirms the receipt of 50 Rhenish guilders as sick leave (“so wie die Kay. M. Zu meiner vnderhalltüng in meiner Krannckhait verordent hat”). – Folded; almost no spotting. – Treitzsaurwein is recorded as Maximilian’s personal scribe since 1501. He worked for the Emperor in Strasbourg, Graz, and Vienna; after Maximilian’s death in 1519, he became secretary of Charles V, who knighted him in the following year and gave him Stixenstein Castle in Lower Austria. In 1521, Treitzsaurwein was made member of the Lower Austrian Imperial Court Council, over which he presided as chancellor since 1523. Treitzsaurwein was involved in practically all literary works ascribed to Maximilian, including the “Theuerdanck” and especially the unfinished “Weißkunig”. – Very rare.
