The Crucifixion. Artist: Circle of the Housebook Master (German, active Middle Rhineland, ca. 1470-1500). Culture: German, possibly Mainz and/or Cologne. Dimensions: 6 5/8 x 4 13/16 in. (16.8 x 12.2cm). Date: 1481-82.The mysterious artist known as the Housebook Master is named after the famous "Hausbuch" manuscript, a book of drawings and illuminations on the subject of war, probably produced between 1475 and 1485. He is thought to have worked as a printmaker, painter, and manuscript illuminator in Germany, particularly the Middle Rhine region, in the second half of the fifteenth century. This leaf depicting the Crucifixion was probably detached from a missal (Kupferstichkabinett, Berlin), a book of texts used in reciting the mass. Although its style resembles that of the Housebook Master, the leaf was probably by an artist in his circle. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
