An artist who is not known by name and who worked as a copperplate engraver around 1465 is referred to as a master with the tape rolls or master of the tape rolls ( French Maître aux banderolles , English Master with the Banderoles ) .

Naming

The master with the ribbon rolls got his emergency name from the ribbon rolls with which he provided many of his sheets, and which reproduced Latin sayings in Gothic script . These go out of the mouths of the figures in the pictures as "banners". Some of his works had previously been assigned to the master of women power .

origin

The master with the tape rolls may have come from Flanders , as some of the works ascribed to him contain quotes in Dutch .

Style and works (selection)

Around 130 works are ascribed to the master with the tape rolls. You can find them in the British Museum in London, for example . They are often copies of works by other artists, including those by the Master of Playing Cards , Master E. S , Stefan Lochners , Rogiers van der Weyden and others. His work is not necessarily to be regarded as of high artistic skill.
