Artist
South German 17th Century

1600–1650
South German 17th Century was a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art.
This artist made drawings and small sculptures in 17th-century southern Germany. Two works here show their hand: the sketch *The Judgment of Paris*, done in brown ink and chalk on paper, and the tiny ivory carving *Adam and Eve*. Both sit squarely in the period’s tradition of religious and classical scenes, where artists turned Bible stories and myths into small, precise objects. Tap *The Judgment of Paris* to zoom in on the fine lines and delicate shading.
