Medieval Crucifixion Print of the Crucifixion of Jesus 8x10

The Master of Saint Veronica takes his name from the painting of Saint Veronica holding the Sudarium. He was active in Cologne c. 1395 - c. 1420, and this and several other works ascribed to him were originally in religious institutions in that city. There are no dated or documented works and previous attempts to identify him with known Cologne artists such as Herman Wynrich von Wesel were unsuccessful. The masters oeuvre consists of only about eleven paintings, but it has been possible, nonetheless, to establish a general chronological order of what are mostly religious scenes. The Master of Saint Veronica was the most important artist in Cologne before Stephen Lochner, and although his origins and possible travels are unknown, associations with French and Burgundian art are evident. The masters style was continued in Cologne by the Master of Saint Lawrence, who was probably part of the shop and may have collaborated on some paintings.
