Summary
[edit]
| Description |
Cologne master, around 1410-1420. Standing Mary with child. Walnut. Painted winged altars were extremely popular in Cologne. The one from Saint Gereon is the only surviving example of a sculpture. Originally there should have been more, as the figure displayed there today suggests. She, too, was once at the center of an age. This is indicated by old traces of attachment on the back. The figure was made in Cologne, in a style of elegantly curved folds typical of the time it was made, as was used everywhere at the time. Deutsch: Kölner Meister,
um 1410-1420. Stehende Maria mit Kind. Nussbaum. Gemalte Flügelaltäre waren in Köln äußerst beliebt. Der aus Sankt Gereon ist das einzige erhaltene Beispiel, in dem eine Skulptur gestanden hat. Ursprünglich dürfte es mehr gegeben haben, wie die heute dort aufgestellte Figur vermuten lässt. Auch sie hat wohl einst im Zentrum eines Alters gestanden. Darauf deuten alte Befestigungsspuren auf ihrer Rückseite. Die Figur wurde in Köln gefertigt, in einem für die Entstehungszeit typischen Stil elegant geschwungener Falten, wie er damals überall verwendet wurde. |
