Tilman Riemenschneider: Master Sculptor of the Late Middle Ages

The sculptures of Tilman Riemenschneider, among the most appealing works of the Middle Ages, stand solidly in the late Gothic tradition yet look daringly forward. This book explores many aspects of Riemenschneider`s art and presents some fifty works representing each stage of his career, including the great altarpieces in Rothenburg on the Tauber, Creglingen, and Maidbronn.
