About this work
The virtuoso Martin Schongauer was a key figure in the development of printmaking. He engraved deep lines, which made it possible to print his copper plates in large editions. His prints were copied extensively during and after his life, whereby his work circulated even more widely. The influence of his designs on other art forms cannot be stated too strongly. They reverberate in almost every conceivable artistic expression, from paintings to pottery.
