Martin Schongaueur was the first truly great master, who played a decisive role in the further development of German engraving.
We see the artist’s new, much more diverse application of a linear stroke, with which he achieves depth and transparency of shadows, using delicate, delicate silvery hues.
Engraving “Portrait of a young woman in a turban” – one of the most lyrical and inspirational works of Martin Schongauer. His soft figure, reduced only to the main points, gives the figure its inherent plastic expression.
