Artist
South German 15th Century
1480–1490
South German 15th Century was a Renaissance artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art.
This South German artist from the late 1400s made drawings on paper and carved wooden sculptures. Their surviving works include *Christ Kneeling in Prayer*, a delicate ink drawing on pink paper, *Sappho* in black and gray wash, and *The Holy Kinship*, a polychromed wood sculpture. These pieces show the careful linework and religious themes common in late medieval German art. Tap *Christ Kneeling in Prayer* to see how they balanced detail and emotion on a small sheet of paper.
