Suida, Wilhelm ÖSTERREICHS MALEREI IN DER ZEIT ERZHERZOG ERNST DES EISERNEN UND KÖNIG ALBRECHT II.
Vienna Krystall-Verlag-Ges. 1926 4to. quarter cloth with paper-covered boards, gilt embossed design on front cover 64, (8) pages + 40 leaves of plates in black and white
Volume 4 of the serial publication, Artes Austriae: Studien zur Kunstgeschichte Österreichs. Surveys Austrian painters in the age of Duke Ernst the Iron (1377--1424) until King Albrecht II, both members of the Hapsburg family. Legend tells us that both Duke Ernst and his wife could bend horseshoes with their bare hands. Albrecht (1397--1439) became king in 1437. In addition to the discussion of the Austrian school of painting in the early fifteenth century, this study focuses on the so-called Albrecht-Altar. This altarpiece of the Carmelite church in Vienna was formerly thought to be commissioned by King Albrecht II; however, later restorations revealed the coat of arms of the real patron, the high-ranking official Oswald Oberndorffer. Twenty-one scenes of this altar illustrated in black-and-white with a number of other examples of Austrian religious paintings. Loose bookplate indicates that this copy was purchased from the collection of H.P. Kraus. Covers irregularly faded. Spine soiled.
