# St George and St John the Evangelist [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MULTSCHER, Hans]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Stone ## Commentary The dominant style in South Germany at the beginning of the 15th century carried on the grace and prettiness of the 14th century, slighly humanized, but nevertheless of the greatest lyrical charm. By the middle decades of the 15th century, the trend towards representational naturalism was everywhere apparent. It is well illustrated by these statues of Multscher, where the whole rendering reaches a stage of unaffected simplicity at times almost photographic. ## Related artworks - [Christ before Pilate \(detail\)]() - [Christ before Pilate]() - [Christ Carrying the Cross]() - [Christus before Pilate \(detail\)]() - [Holy Trinity]() - [Man of Sorrows]() - [Model of a Tomb]() - [Pentecost]() - [Prayer on the Mount of Olives]() - [Resurrection]() - [Th Adoration of the Magi]() - [The Birth of Christ]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
