Master of the Madonna of Benda
b. 1500
Master of the Madonna of Benda is a Northern Renaissance artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Kunsthistorisches Museum.
German painters of the late 1400s often layered gold leaf into their altar panels, and this anonymous hand left behind delicate halos and soft drapery in oil. One example is the Madonna and Child, where Mary cradles Jesus in a quiet, gold-framed space that feels intimate rather than grand. Want to see another work from the same era?
