Master of Sierentz

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A German late Gothic painter who worked on the Upper Rhine around 1445–50 is referred to as the master of Sierentz .

It got its emergency name after the alleged place of origin of two altar wings, the town of Sierentz in Upper Alsace. He is part of the successor to the Basel master Konrad Witz . The two altar panels with Saints George and Martin are now in the Kunstmuseum Basel . The master of the Jünteler epitaph , named after a picture in the Museum zu Allerheiligen in Schaffhausen , may have emerged from the workshop of the master of Sierentz .
