Produktbeschreibung

Essay from the year 1979 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies, grade: 3,0, Bielefeld University (Sprachenzentrum), course: English Lexis, language: English, abstract: This describes and explains the surprisingly mobile and innovative life of the artist Hans Holbein the Younger, who worked for the patricians and humanists at Basle and as a court painter of Henry VIII. in London. He created woodcuts, book illustrations, interior and exterior frescoes, altarpieces, memorial tablets, portraits, drawings, figurative festal decorations for both laymen and clergymen, catholic and protestant customers, patricians, humanist scholars, statesmen, merchants of the steelyard, diplomats at court, noblemen, and potential brides of King Henry VIII. He depended very much on the patronage of such men as Erasmus of Rotterdam, Sir Thomas More, councillors and Lord Mayors of Basle, and last but not least on King Henry VIII. Hans Holbein the Younger contributed to the wealth of humanism with his talents, gifts, and his artistic skills. The range of techniques he commanded was exceptionally broad.
