EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a panel from the tomb of Sebastian Welling, a prominent burgermeister of Stuttgart in 1535. Painted by Martin Schaffner, this oil on panel masterpiece measures 90.5x77 cm and is housed at the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, Germany. The image depicts a powerful scene of prayer and devotion. In the foreground, Sebastian Welling kneels before an intricately detailed cross adorned with a crown of thorns. His hands are clasped together in deep reverence as he beseeches divine intervention. Surrounding him are heavenly angels and donors who pay homage to his memory. The painting exudes Renaissance elegance through its masterful execution and attention to detail. The rich colors and delicate brushstrokes bring life to each figure portrayed, including Jesus Christ himself who stands prominently at the center of the composition. Sebastian Welling's role as both mayor and patron is evident in this funerary altarpiece that serves as a memorial for his legacy. As a Protestant merchant, he sought solace in faith during turbulent times, finding comfort through prayer and devotion. This remarkable artwork not only captures an important historical figure but also reflects the religious fervor prevalent during this period. It invites viewers to contemplate themes of mortality, redemption, and eternal salvation while appreciating Schaffner's exceptional talent as an artist.
