The king of France and the dauphin began the organization of a standing army, which greatly increased the military strength of the country . In 1449 the war with England was renewed. With the defeat of the English, and the death of their commander, Talbot, in 1453, the contest of a century came to an end. All that England retained across the Channel was Calais with Havre and Guines Castle.
His life lasted from 1449 to 1498, and he did not distinguish himself as a painter till he was past thirty. Therefore he does not properly fall within the limit of 1470, assigned roughly to this age of transition in painting.

I may add that Scoresby remarks that green water abounding with pelagic animals is invariably found in a certain part of the Arctic Sea. I state this on the authority of Dr. E. Dieffenbach, in his German translation of the first edition of this Journal. The Cape de Verd Islands were discovered in 1449.
Sebald's in Nüremberg represents the puritanical idea of "the world," by exhibiting a good-looking young woman, whose back is that of a corpse; the shroud is open, and the half decomposed body is displayed, with snakes and toads depredating upon it. Among the early Renaissance artists in Nüremberg, was Hans Decker, who was named in the Burgher Lists of 1449.
