Summary[edit]
DescriptionTwo Swiss Mercenaries, design for a Stained Glass Window, workshop of Hans Holbein the Younger.jpg |
English: Design for a Stained Glass Window with Two Swiss Mercenaries. Pen and ink and brush, grey wash, over chalk underdrawing, 43.6 × 32.3 cm, Kunstmuseum Basel.
Art historian Christian Müller detects a "pieced-together" quality in this drawing, pointing, for example, to the lack of room for the tops of the weapons. He finds the penwork "cumbersome" and the washes patchy. Holbein's design is nonetheless of high quality and was probably executed by an assistant (Müller, 312). |
