WHEEL OF FORTUNE Detail of a Wheel of Fortune, said (in 1524) to be a copy of a design on an old tapestry, found in the castle at Michelfeld, on the Rhine. This detail shows Time (Zeit) turning the Wheel of Fortune, aided by a fox (Fuchs). The named birds include a peacock, a falcon, a magpie, a pheasant and an eagle - these may have been heraldic devices. The print is often wrongly attributed to Albrecht Durer.
