Saint Wolfgang (Sch.*1733a) 1450 - 1470

This small painting from the late 15th century, attributed to the artist Casper, depicts Saint Wolfgang, a prominent figure in the Catholic Church. Saint Wolfgang holds a staff topped with a wheel, a common symbol of his martyrdom, and a small church in his left hand. The painting is a fine example of the early Northern Renaissance artistic style, known for its realistic depiction of detail and symbolism. The artwork is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, showcasing the museum's broad collection of art history.
