Painting Description
The ''Nuremberg Chronicle'' - God the Father Enthroned, 1493, is an iconic woodcut illustration by Michael Wolgemut, an influential German painter and printmaker of the late 15th century. This particular woodcut is part of the ''Liber Chronicarum'', known in English as the Nuremberg Chronicle, which is one of the most extensively illustrated books of the incunabula period and was published in 1493. The Chronicle, written by Hartmann Schedel and printed by Anton Koberger, is a world history from the Creation to the time of its publication, and it includes descriptions of a variety of subjects from the biblical to the historical.
Michael Wolgemut, who was Albrecht Dürer's teacher, ran a large workshop in Nuremberg and was responsible for the production of the woodcut illustrations that adorned the Chronicle. The image of God the Father Enthroned is a striking example of the religious iconography of the period and reflects the theological and artistic sensibilities of the late Middle Ages. In this woodcut, God is depicted seated on a throne, often surrounded by angels and other biblical figures, symbolizing divine authority and the centrality of the Christian God in medieval cosmology.
The ''Nuremberg Chronicle'' is renowned for its ambitious scope and the quality of its illustrations, which were groundbreaking at the time of its creation. The book's blend of religious, historical, and mythological elements, along with its rich visual content, has made it a valuable resource for scholars studying the art and culture of the Renaissance. The God the Father Enthroned woodcut is a testament to Wolgemut's skill and the collaborative effort involved in producing such a monumental work in the early history of printed books.
