Hans Leonhard Schäufelein (c. 1480–1540) was a German painter designer and wood engraver. He was born in Nuremberg probably studied under Wohlgemut and then became the assistant of Dürer whom he imitated. In 1512 he went to Augsburg and in 1515 removed to Nordlingen. He is a graceful narrator and his types though rarely accurately drawn are attractive but he lacks power and depth.
