How Cranach was trained is not known, but it was probably with local south German masters, as with his contemporary Matthias Grünewald, who worked at Bamberg and Aschaffenburg ( Bamberg is the capital of the diocese in which Kronach lies ).

Aschaffenburg's chief buildings are the Schloss Johannisburg, built 1605 – 1614 by Archbishop Schweikard von Kronberg, which contains a library with a number of incunabula, a collection of engravings and paintings ; the Pompejanum, a replica of a Roman town house discovered in Pompeii commissioned by King Ludwig I. and opened in 1850 ; the Stiftskirche basilica, founded in 974 by Otto of Swabia, duke of Bavaria, but dating in the main from the early 12th century on, in which are preserved various monuments by the Vischers, a sarcophagus with the relics of Saint Margaret, and a famous painting by Matthias Grünewald ; the Capuchin hospital ; a theatre, which was formerly a house of the Teutonic Order ; several mansions of the nobility ; and the beautiful, historical " Altstadt " ( the oldest section of Aschaffenburg ).

Matthias Grünewald or " Mathis " ( as first name ), " Gothart " or " Neithardt " ( as surname ), ( c. 1470 – August 31, 1528 ), was a German Renaissance painter of religious works, who ignored Renaissance classicism to continue the expressive and intense style of late medieval Central European art into the 16th century.

Grünewald seems to have left Isenheim in a hurry, returning to Frankfurt, and his subsequent poverty suggests he was not fully paid for the altarpiece.

In 1938 Walter Karl Zülch published the theory that Grünewald and his partner Nithart / Gothardt were the same person ; this Nithart / Gothardt was a painter, engineer, and " water artist " born in Würzburg in the 1460s or maybe 1470s and probably dying in 1528.

Late critic José Lino Grünewald labelled it one of the brightest moments of the language in prose, despite the fact that Carpeaux was not a native speaker.

Augusto Hamann Rademaker Grünewald ( May 11, 1905 – September 13, 1985 ) was an admiral in the Brazilian navy.

Grünewald was of German and Danish descent.

The Isenheim Altarpiece, currently on display at the Unterlinden Museum of Colmar, was completed in 1515 by Matthias Grünewald for a local monastery.

The work's protagonist, Matthias Grünewald, was an actual historical figure who flourished in that era, and whose art, in particular the Isenheim Altarpiece, inspired many creative figures in the early 20th century, including Joris-Karl Huysmans's novel Là-Bas.

Palestrina is one of three characteristic German-language operas of the early 20th century, outside the main stream of opera, which deal with the isolation of the creative individual, two others being Paul Hindemith's Mathis der Maler ( about Matthias Grünewald ), completed 1935, and the Berlin-based Ferruccio Busoni's Doktor Faust, which was left unfinished in 1924.

The Protestant theologian Philipp Melanchthon is one of the few contemporary writers to refer to Grünewald, who is rather puzzlingly described as " moderate " in style, when compared with Dürer and Cranach ; what paintings this judgement is based on is uncertain.

During this time, seeking to achieve the vivid lighting effects achieved by such Old Masters as Albrecht Altdorfer, Albrecht Dürer, Matthias Grünewald and Martin Schongauer, he revived and adopted the mischtechnik ( mixed technique ) of painting.

Sandrart published the first biography of the German artist Matthias Grünewald, and incorrectly bestowed on the artist the name Grünewald by which he is now popularly known.

They were among the first painters to regularly use pure landscape painting, and their figures, influenced by Matthias Grünewald, are often highly expressive, if not expressionist.

In 1933-35, Hindemith wrote his opera Mathis der Maler, based on the life of the painter Matthias Grünewald.

In a general sense, painters such as Matthias Grünewald and El Greco are sometimes termed expressionist, though in practice the term is applied mainly to 20th-century works.

RegionalBahn service Der Müngstener ( RB 47 ) links Solingen ( including the station nearest the town centre, Solingen Mitte, and Solingen Grünewald ) to Wuppertal via Hauptbahnhof, Lennep and Ronsdorf.

He greatly admired Cézanne, but also Van Gogh, Blake, Rembrandt, Rubens and Northern European artists of the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance such as Bosch, Bruegel and Matthias Grünewald.

Sandrart records that Grünewald had as an apprentice the painter Hans Grimmer, who would become famous in his time, but most of whose works were lost in the Thirty Years ' War.

Sandrart describes Grünewald as leading a withdrawn and melancholy life, and marrying unhappily.

This theory is now generally discredited, although more recent historians believe Nithart / Gothardt may have pretended to be Grünewald for business reasons.

The composer Paul Hindemith based his 1938 opera Mathis der Maler on the life of Grünewald during the German Peasants ' War ; scene Six includes a partial re-enactment of some scenes from the Isenheim Altarpiece.

Sebald traces the life story of Grünewald in his first literary work, After Nature.
