Unknown Artists: Master of the Weibermacht

 




In the 1450's and 1460's there was a German engraver active in the Lower Rhine area. Their name is unknown now, but they are known as The Master of Weibermacht (sometimes Master of 1462). His name derives from his large-format engraving of an original interpretation of the common theme of Weibermacht (Power of Women). There are other engravings depicting both religious and secular subjects these engravings have been credited to other artists at one time or another though.
