Hieronymus Vietor

[4] [note 1] He printed Paulus of Krosno's Pangyrici ad divum Ladislaum Pannoniae while at Winterburger's.

[4] In 1510 he opened his own print shop,[4] the first work being Joachim Vadian's edition of Parvulus philosophie naturalis of Petrus Dresdensis, completed on August 16, 1510.

In 1515, he presented king Sigismund I with a dedicated copy of Joachim Vadian's Oratio coram invictissimo Sigismundo Rege Poloniae.

[2][4] The first book printed in his new Kraków shop was Querela pacis of Erasmus of Rotterdam, which appeared on March 30, 1518.

[2] In 1523 or early 1524, Vietor was granted a printing privilege for king Sigsmund's Constitution,[2][4] and in 1527, he was named royal printer.

In 1527, Vietor managed to gain a printing privilege for calendars, an important income source, for ten years.

[4] After Vietor's death, Barbara married his apprentice Łazarz Andrysowicz (Lazarus Andrea),[2] who continued the business and who would become famous in his own right.

[11] Experts attest Vietor's prints a high level of quality, also in comparison to other European printers of the time.
