Meister der Legendenszenen

Miraculous Healing of the Leg by St Cosmas and Damian
A Man Commands his Wife to St Cosmas and Damian
The delivery of the False Message by the Devil (Legend of St Cosmas and Damian)

Meister der Legendenszenen is an artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Kunsthistorisches Museum.

This painter made small, detailed scenes from old saint stories in the 1400s. Their brush filled tiny panels with crowd scenes and miracles—like *A Man Commands his Wife to St Cosmas and Damian* where a husband points toward two healing brothers, or *Miraculous Healing of the Leg* showing a freshly mended foot. You can zoom into the dots of light on armor or the wrinkles of a bedsheet; every inch has a story. Open *The delivery of the False Message by the Devil* to watch a pitchfork appear where a letter should be.
