Court sculptor to the elector of Brandenburg, he specialized in small-scale works for collectors' cabinets, often producing variants in ivory, wood, and stone. The heavy features, calm stance, and compact, full body of this figure are typical of his naturalistic, monumental style, as is the simplicity of surface, markedly different from the more agitated and detailed approach of his contemporaries. The rubbed areas of remaining paint suggest an intention to imitate bronze.. Female statuette 203976
