One of only a handful of extant works attributed to the anonymous
Nuremberg artist, the Master of the Stotteritz Altarpiece, the
Mother of Sorrows is a fine example of the heightened realism that
characterised much Northern European painting during the early
Renaissance. Author David Areford seeks to reveal how this
little-known artist was able to create such emotional drama within
the confines of one small panel originally designed as part of a
portable 15th-century diptych for personal devotion. The author
shows how the concept of empathy remains relevant in our world
today, and examines the influence of the Mother of Sorrows on the
art of subsequent centuries, drawing comparisons with, amongst
others, Picasso's 'Weeping Woman'.
