Masters, Anonymous, And Monogrammists, §I: Master Of Frankfurt Biography
(b 1460; d ?1533). South Netherlandish painter. He takes his name from two paintings commissioned by patrons from Frankfurt am Main. His chief importance lies in his continuing the great tradition of 15th-century Netherlandish painting (particularly the compositions of Rogier van der Weyden and Hugo van der Goes) well into the 16th century, his development of a markedly earthy figure type, his apparently innovative management of a large workshop that mass-produced paintings for the open market and his status (with his greater contemporary, Quentin Metsys) as a founder of the distinguished tradition of painting in Antwerp.
