Katalog der im Germanischen Museum befindlichen Gemälde

Germanisches Nationalmuseum Nürnberg · 1893 · Nürnberg : Verlag des Germanischen Museums · 11 pictures

A catalogue of paintings held by the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg, published by the museum's own press in 1893 for scholars and collectors of German religious painting. The plates reproduce late medieval altarpiece panels by Michael Wolgemut and a related Madonna, shown as crisp black-and-white halftone engravings. Designers can take from them the compositional logic of gothic tracery framing saints, with figures set in rigid vertical panels, and the stiff drapery and mannered poses typical of Nuremberg painting around 1500.
