HANS SÜSS VON KULMBACH. The Ascension of Christ

HANS SÜSS VON KULMBACH. The Ascension of Christ. Artist: Hans Süss von Kulmbach (German, Kulmbach ca. 1480-1522 Nuremberg). Dimensions: Overall 24 1/4 x 15 in. (61.5 x 38.1 cm); painted surface 24 1/4 x 14 1/8 in. (61.5 x 35.9 cm). Date: 1513. This Ascension of Christ into heaven is emphasized by depicting him as leaving the pictorial space. Only his feet and lower legs, engulfed by clouds, appear at the top, while on the ground the twelve apostles and the Virgin Mary witness his departure. Kulmbach, who trained with Dürer, adapted the composition from a woodcut in his teacher's <i>Small Passion</i> series. This painting and eight others (now dispersed among various museums) once comprised the wings and predella panel of an altarpiece devoted to the life of the Virgin. A sculpted <i>Coronation of the Virgin</i> (Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Nuremberg) was the centerpiece.
