Yes, Martin, and as a later echo of Dürer's observation of the Ensisheim
fall
we might consider his famous copperplate print 'Melencolia I' (1514) with
the radiant heavenly body in the skies

Hi there,
I guess that's the most comprehensive monograph about Ensisheim,
By Ursula Marvin:
http://kuerzer.de/Marvinens
I think it was her, who ascribed that unsigned drawing by Albrecht Duerer,
to be an observation of the fireball of the Ensisheim meteorite
(which is told to be since so):
http://kuerzer.de/Duererens
Here btw a portrait of Sebastian Brant, the author of the famous broadsheet
about the fall,
also a drawing by Duerer:

Salute to the oldest European fall
- Elbogen.
eeeeeeeeeeek..........
Martin,
on the run
