Comments

Cranach still pays the board (Tischgeld) for the stall (assessed at 8 groschens in 1540) listed on fol. 59v, although Dr. Johann Bugenhagen (Pommer) was already paying the taxes for the stall in 1541.
The wine tax is not listed this year. The treasury account book is only 102 pages thick and is less than half the size of previous years.
The whole volume was available to Karl Eduard Förstemann for his research on the Cranach family and he cites the following from the treasury account book, 1541: 4 schocks, 42 groschen Doctor Brucken [the chancellor Gregor Pontanus] und Lucassen Cranach uf ihrer Tochter [Barbara Brück und sohn [Lucas Cranach the Younger] Wirtschaft [wedding] verehrt, Nemlichen 3 schock 34 Groschen an 2 eimer 19 Quart Rheinischen Wein, und ein Schock 8 groschen vor 1 Zentner Karpfen, Sonnabend nach Valentini. [19.02.1541]
