Try Max Geisberg, The German single-leaf woodcut: 1500-1550 / rev. and ed. by Walter L. Strauss, New York : Hacker, 1974, vol. 4, p.1535, no. G.1579, published in Zurich by an unknown artist in 1520, titled "Luther's Game of Heresy". It shows Luther (right)with what appears to be a long-handled frying-pan which he holds over a flaming(?) cauldron which is over a fire. On the other side of the cauldron stands the Devil with a similar frying-pan. There are lots of labels in verse. There are two minor devils with forks and another two with a drum and a set of bagpipes. I don't know whether the print is pro or anti Luther, as late medieval German is not my subject.
