Master of Saint Veronica

Saint Veronica with the Holy Kerchief, c 1420. Alte Pinakothek, Munich

The Master of Saint Veronica (active c. 1400 1420), was a German painter working in the International Gothic style.

He was active in Cologne and is known for his religious works.[1] Nothing is known of his life, his notname is based on a painting of Saint Veronica with the Sudarium commissioned for the church of St Severin, Cologne, but now in the Alte Pinakothek, Munich.[2] As well as panel paintings, detached miniatures probably from an illuminated manuscript, now in the Getty Museum, have been attributed to him.
