Summary

[edit]
Description

Hans Multscher. (active in Ulm 1427-1467). Wing of the Wurzach Altar, 1437. Left: Christ on the Mount of Olives, Christ before Pilate, carrying the cross and resurrection; Right: Nativity, Adoration of the Magi, Pentecost miracle, Mary's death. Canvas on fir wood. The paintings consistently show strikingly rough people. The move away from an unrealistic ideal of beauty testifies to the new interest in everyday impressions. The same applies to the representation of drop shadows and reflective surfaces. Models can be found with the Dutch painter Jan van Eyck, whose Ghent altarpiece was completed slightly earlier in 1432. The Ulm artist may have known similar works.

Deutsch: Hans Multscher. (tätig in Ulm 1427-1467). Flügel des Wurzacher Altars, 1437. Links: Christus am Ölberg, Christus vor Pilatus, Kreuztragung und Auferstehung; Rechts: Geburt Christi, Anbetung der Könige, Pfingstwunder, Marientod. Leinwand auf Tannenholz. Die Malereien zeigen durchweg auffallend derbe Menschen. Die Abkehr von einem unrealistischen Schönheitsideal zeugt vom neuartigen Interesse an Alltagseindrücken. Gleiches gilt für die Darstellung von Schlagschatten und spiegelnden Oberflächen. Vorbilder finden sich bei den niederländischen Maler Jan van Eyck, dessen Genter Altar unwesentlich früher 1432 vollendet wurde. Der Ulmer Künstler durfte ähnliche Werke gekannt haben.
