Der Meister der Apokalypsenrose der Sainte Chapelle und die Pariser Buchkunst um 1500

by Ina Nettekoven

Overview

The western rose window of the Sainte Chapelle, designed around 1490 by order of King Charles VIII, is a mysterious creation in many respects. Its creator has been identified as an artist who was known in Paris around 1500 for his illuminations and especially for his designs in graphic book art. This comprehensive study presents his works with an emphasis on the illuminations and their context in art history, as well as the historical background of a politically challenging period for France.
