As for the Flemish engravings You are mistaken : Merian was Swiss, but the Bible with his etchings (first edition 1630) published Tsettsnerom in Strasbourg.

The price of prints is difficult to say :
1) You - are not complete , there have been more than 200 ;
2) They are cut from the book , which reduces their value as compared with the intact book;
3) Many serious collectors of prints is considered bad form to collect cut sheets of the books , preferring to buy the whole book ;
4) The Bible was published with engravings Merial many times during the XVII - XIX centuries , the highest price , of course, only for the first edition in 1630 , which is extremely rare. It is necessary to determine what year the publication where your cut prints, depends on the price.
For orientation on price - on eBay separate prints of this Bible can be purchased cheaply and 10 euros. Complete Bible 1704 Edition (see attachment ) with all the prints sold for 3999 euros.

He took part in vostanii Saxons against Henry IV at (1050 - 1106) , Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire of the German nation. The rebellion was crushed by Prince Vratislav II Bohemian in the First Battle of Langensalza June 9, 1075 . Egbert was deprived of Meissen, which was given to Wroclaw . In September, the conflict was renewed , but in 1087 , Egbert and Henry made ​​peace.
Bishops Hartwig of Magdeburg and Halberstadt Burchard convinced Egbert turn against the Emperor and himself to seek the crown ..
In 1088 , Egbert was besieged in his castle Gleichen within four months of the troops of the emperor , but managed to escape. He was outlawed and deprived of his property by a court of princes. He was later killed in battle in 1090

Etching can be attributed to the Saxon chronicles 16 - 17 centuries.
