Master of the Lyversberger Passion

This artist painted religious scenes on wood panels in the mid-1400s, using oil paint to layer rich colors and fine details. In Coronation of the Virgin with Donors, they show the Virgin Mary being crowned in heaven while two donors kneel below, their faces painted with careful folds of fabric and glowing jewelry. Their other work, Saint James the Great, depicts the saint holding a book and a staff, wrapped in deep reds and blues. Tap Coronation of the Virgin with Donors to see how they blended storytelling with lifelike textures.
