It is a real magic square because it contains the integers 1,2, ..., 16 on 4x4 places. The constant of this magic square is 34. I have been thinking if there are any 'beautiful' ways in decomposing it into two or more (magical) squares. Best I have come up sofar are two squares with constant number 17.
| 1 | 3 | 1 | 12 |
| 3 | 10 | 0 | 4 |
| 9 | 1 | 6 | 1 |
| 4 | 3 | 10 | 0 |
| 15 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 0 | 11 | 4 |
| 0 | 5 | 1 | 11 |
| 0 | 12 | 4 | 1 |
Add them and the result is Drurer's magic square.
