Note du spécialiste

Christoph Daniel Schenk (1633-1691) was an important German sculptor of religious imagery, who primarily worked with wood and ivory. He is best known for his large-scale wood altar figures and altarpieces. His earliest works were produced during the Counter-Reformation, a period of renewed artistic activity. Spiraling, activated drapery forms emphasized his combination of stark naturalism and heightened emotionalism.
