[EAN: 9781230186160], Neubuch, [PU: RareBooksClub], WILHELM LUBKE,SUBJECTS, This item is printed on demand. Paperback. 206 pages.

Excerpt: . . . and poetical feeling, and these are exhibited in the sweetly humble head of the Virgin, who is turning the beautiful oval of her countenance sidewards as if embarrassed, and allows her down-cast look to rest on the people around; also in the dignified and solemn expression of Christ, and in the open and naive child-like faces of the angels, who are strangely grotesque in the arrangement of the drapery, but express their joyous mirth by their bodily advancing movement. How deficient was the artists understanding of the physical structure may be seen in the exaggerated height of the two saints, who are entirely enveloped in drapery, while Christ and the Virgin display rather too compact proportions. In spite of all this the whole is full of poetry and nobleness of feeling. The altar base contains a distinct and somewhat genre-like relief of the Adoration of the Kings. In the perforated tabernacle which crowns the work the scene of Christ on the Cross, attended by St. John and Mary exhibiting vehement grief, is introduced by an inferior hand; by the side are St. John the Baptist and St. Michael, the latter holding the balance and striking it with the sword. On separate consoles above are two female saints, two adoring angels, and God the Father enthroned. The youthful knightly figures of St. George and St. Florian, who are introduced on rich consoles at the sides of the altar, are of higher importance. St. Florian wears a turban and is pouring water from a can upon a burning fort. Cf. respecting him, Ed. Frf. ih. Von Sackf. n in the Oesterr-Kunstdenkni. (Stuttgart) 1. p. 125, ct ieq. , and illustration on pi. 19. No other works have been authenticated as by this master (except some paintings which we must here pass over) but two carved panels. . .
