Painting Description
"A Mounted Griffin, from Maximilian's Triumphal Procession" is a renowned piece of work by German artist Hans Burgkmair the Elder. It was created as part of the larger artwork titled "Triumphal Procession of Emperor Maximilian I," which was commissioned by the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian himself. The project was initiated around 1512-1515 and continued till 1519, a year after the Emperor's death.
The core subject "A Mounted Griffin, from Maximilian's Triumphal Procession" is a mythical creature, a Griffin, mounted by a warrior. In classical mythology, a griffin is a legendary creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. In the composition, Burgkmair the Elder depicts the griffin with intricate detail, showing its majestic wings spread out wide, while the rider is seen grasping a banner. The work vividly captures the grandeur of the Emperor's procession and his extensive sovereignty, as symbolized by the mythical creature.
Burgkmair's distinctive detailed drawing style reflects a blend of Northern Renaissance art characteristics, imbued with elements of humanistic culture through every stroke. The work is considered as one of the finest woodcuts of the early 16th Century, which played a pivotal role in the artistic development of the woodcut medium. Throughout his artistic career, Burgkmair the Elder made significant contributions to the German Renaissance, and "A Mounted Griffin, from Maximilian's Triumphal Procession" remains one of the artist's enduring legacies.
