Summary

[edit]
Description

Master of the Mornau portrait (active in Bavaria or Tyrol). Portrait of Alexander Mornauer, around 1470-1480. Coniferous wood. As head of the city chancellery, Mornauer was one of the most powerful men in Landshut. In her hand she is holding a letter from a grateful client. His clothing expresses wealth and importance. Apparently he is depicted in his wood-paneled office. The gripping, extremely direct-looking portrait is based on a drawing from life. London National Gallery.
