Artist
Master of 1515
1515–1520
Master of 1515 was a Renaissance artist. 4 works are cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art.
This anonymous engraver signed their work with a tiny "M" inside a circle, like a secret handshake. The prints crackle with drama, muscles straining, satyrs grinning, mythic chaos spilling off the page. You can see Hercules and Cacus at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, where two figures wrestle so hard the paper seems to shake.
It’s the kind of art that makes you lean in, wondering who this mysterious M was and where they learned to draw like that.
