Description

• Title:
  Mikołaj Auerhan - A Goldsmith from Poznań Active in the 4th Quarter of the 15th Century and his Oeuvre
• Creator:
  Janiszewska, Monika
• Description:
  The  artistic  style  of  master  Mikołaj  was  fully-developed   and   homogenous,  despite quite a  large  repertoire  of  applied  forms.  His  chalices  followed  the  15th  century  convention of goldsmithery from Wielkopolska (i.e. Greater Poland Province), however they also contain elements of Pomeranian provenance. Motifs consistently used and elaborated by his workshop include: richly decorated openwork nodes, openwork buttons, little baskets crowned by thick lace and engravings (based partially on the prints of Marcin Schongauer and master E.S.) The exceptional position of Auerhan's works against the background of the whole goldsmithery in Poland in late Gothic lies in his relatively many preserved works all of which are quoted in the archives.
