"St. George and St. John the Evangelist" is a notable work by the German sculptor and painter Hans Multscher, who was active during the late Gothic period. Created in the 15th century, this piece is part of a larger altarpiece that was originally located in the Sterzing Altarpiece in South Tyrol, Italy. The work is a prime example of Multscher's mastery in wood carving and his ability to infuse his figures with a sense of individuality and expressive detail, which was characteristic of the Swabian school of art to which he belonged.

The altarpiece, commissioned for the town's parish church, was completed in 1456 and is considered one of Multscher's masterpieces. "St. George and St. John the Evangelist" features two of the four main figures from the altarpiece, with St. George traditionally depicted as a knight slaying a dragon, symbolizing the triumph of Christianity over paganism, and St. John the Evangelist often represented with an eagle, reflecting his lofty and visionary Gospel.

The figures are sculpted with a remarkable sense of volume and realism, standing as individual statues that showcase Multscher's skill in portraying both the human form and the intricate details of the saints' attributes and garments. The work reflects the transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, as it combines Gothic elements with a new interest in naturalism and the study of human anatomy.

Today, "St. George and St. John the Evangelist" is highly regarded for its historical and artistic significance. It is often studied for its stylistic features and as an example of the devotional art of the period. The altarpiece, including these figures, can be seen as a testament to the religious fervor and the rich artistic culture of the 15th-century Holy Roman Empire.
