!!!Meister von Großgmain

Meister von Grossgmain, painter; there is evidence that he worked in 
Salzburg 1483-1499. He is named after four panels in the parish church 
at Grossgmain near Salzburg (1499) depicting scenes from the life of 
the Virgin Mary. His work is closely related to the monumental style 
of R.  Frueauf the Elder in whose workshop he was possibly 
apprenticed. He used to be wrongly identified as M.  Kriechbaum. Other 
works ascribed to him are to be found in e.g. the Oesterreichische 
Galerie Belvedere in Vienna and at Klosterneuburg monastery.
