Works
Nothing is known about the person who is today referred to as the Master of Schloss Lichtenstein. The name derives from Lichtenstein Castle in south-western Germany, where two wings of an altarpiece by his hand are located. Twenty-one other panels attributed to his hand and possibly originally even part of the same altarpiece, have been identified. They are today distributed among museums all over the world.[1]
The artist is characterised for working in a transitional style of Gothic, similar to that of his countrymen the
Low countries.[1] The Master of Schloss Lichtenstein has been described as one of the most innovative artists of his age.[2]
