Georg Glockendon the Elder (fl.
1484; died 1514) was a Nuremberg-based woodblock cutter, printer and painter.
Famed during his lifetime for his illuminations, he was also an industrious printer and published a number of the works of Erhard Etzlaub.
The Erdapfel of Martin Behaim is the best known of his painted works, the majority of which remain unidentified.
As a member of the Glockendon family of artists, he was the father of miniaturist and woodcutter Albrecht, who took over the family workshop, and master illuminator Nikolaus.
