Wings and horsemen from a German master

 Salvete Omnes,

Killing of children of Niobe


last night, looking at some German painters from the XVI and early XVII century I came across a painting by Johann Konig (Kreis). Master Johann was born in Nuremberg in 1586AD and died there in 1642AD.

Meister Johann painted in oils on copper panels, the technique allowed for very precise detail in oil paints etc - 

according to Wiki Commons, this painting showing Christ's Passion was sold at Sotheby's London in 2010
