Hans Multscher

Multscher is believed to have traveled in his youth, perhaps to the Rhineland, Burgundy, and as far as the Netherlands. By 1427 he was recorded as a sculptor in Ulm. Multscher worked in other South German centers as well, producing both painting and sculpture, but his masterpiece may be the altar he made for a church in Sterzing (Vipiteno), in the South Tyrol near Bolzano.
