Intussen, in het leven van Tilman Riemenschneider
Het hele leven1490s
Begins leaving the wood unpainted
Before the 1490s almost every sculpture was polychromed and gilded, usually by a painter; Riemenschneider, one of the first sculptors (other accounts say the first) not to have all his figures painted, employs no painters in his workshop but works regularly with independent ones, such as Jakob Mülholzer (cooperation verifiable from 1490/91 to 1514/15) and Martin Schwarz.
1494
His first wife dies
Anna Schmidt dies, leaving Tilman with three stepsons and a daughter; other accounts place her death ten years after the wedding, around 1495.
1497
Marries Anna Rappolt
In 1497 he marries Anna Rappolt; they have two daughters and three sons, all of whom seem to have inherited their father’s artistic talent (other accounts speak of one daughter). The marriage lasts nine years.
