"In der Zeit wird"

I agree, it must be a phrase that starts a story or paragraph. Using English closest equivalents, the phrase would be "in that time were". In proper English: "in those days, there was...". 

Marco: I always find it fascinating how the same images are maintained over centuries, like a series of pre-posed mannequins that are only updated with the latest fashion trends. This is almost the opposite mindset to the one illustrators have today: they will aim for period-appropriate dress but are expected to produce original imagery.

The representation of the Choleric as a scholar is unusual. I've seen them depicted looking for trouble or even committing domestic violence avant la lettre. 
One possible explanation is that Laufenberg says a lot about each of the four, also about their intellectual performance. When going by the text alone, a solitary figure with a book might be seen to illustrate various temperaments, allowing the scholar figure to float through the temperaments in various MSS of the tradition. 

I'm not sure if any of that is true. What does appear to be the case, and relevant for us, is that an image of a pointing scholar was likely found in close proximity to the other three.
