Andreas Pleninger

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Andreas Pleninger (Plenninger, Bleninger, Plieninger, Pleininger, AP) (born January 3, 1555 in Regensburg , † 1607 ) was a German stone etcher.

resume

Andreas Pleninger was born in Regensburg in 1555 and also attended the Poeticum grammar school there, where he received musical training. He learned the art of stone etching and calligraphy in Nuremberg. It was during this time that the contacts that gave him the astronomical knowledge that he later shows in the sundials and tables with 'everlasting calendars' seem to have come about. For one of his first works from around 1575, a map of Europe etched in stone, he used the map by Tilemann Stella , a woodcut from 1560.

Pleninger was employed as organist and sacristan at the parish church of Gmunden in 1585 , but had already been in Austria from around 1576. He was probably trying to get into the service of a member of the gentry and knighthood. In any case, he made works for Hans Adam Jörger , one of the most prominent Protestant families in Upper Austria (a song table was later acquired by Count Starhemberg ). During this time several works for Protestant families such as grave slabs, epitaphs and song tables were created. The situation of the Protestants became more and more difficult with the escalation of religious differences and so he had to return to his native Regensburg after 1598, where he died in 1607 and was buried in St. Petersfriedhof.
