Stephan Michelspacher was a Tyrolean printmaker active in Augsburg during the early seventeenth century.
Alinda van Ackooy has suggested that as a Lutheran he left Tyrol in around 1613 owing to the Catholic Renewal promoted by the Habsburgs.
Augsburg also was a centre of the print industry, in which Michelspacher was to participate.
[2] In Augsburg, on becoming a printmaker, he published Cabala, Spiegel der Kunst und Natur: in Alchymia in 1615.
He collaborated with Johann Remmelin on an anatomical work, Pinax microcosmographicus.
