This object has the following keywords:

• engravings - Prints on paper incorporating impressions of a reverse design created on a printing plate, usually copper, into which the design has been incised (engraved) using burins or gravers. Historically, "engravings" has sometimes been incorrectly used to refer to all prints, regardless of the specific technique. For prints made from designs engraved on a flat wooden block, use "wood cuts"; for prints made from a plate that is etched rather than engraved, use "etchings."
• German - Refers to the cultures, periods, and styles of the modern nation of Germany, or the cultures that have occupied the area of the modern nation in central Europe. More broadly, it can refer to the cultures of the ancient groups of related peoples who inhabited central and northern Europe, and who spoke dialects from which the Germanic or Teutonic languages developed.
• skulls - Bony framework of the head, enclosing the brain and supporting the face.
• weapons - Implements or mechanisms used for defense or attack in combat, hunting, or war.
• wings - Accessories that project outward from the shoulder of a garment and are made of cloth or metal. In a military context, may be attached to a shoulder strap and may indicate rank or unit.
