Gilbrecht and Anna von Holzhausen
by FABER VON CREUZNACH, Conrad, Oil on panel
Conrad Faber von Kreuznach is particularly noted for his 1535 portrait works of Gilbrecht von Holzhausen (1514-1550) and his wife Anna Ratzeburger. In the background of this picture the city of Frankfurt am Main is depicted with a bird’s eye perspective. This makes the picture one of the earliest known depiction of the city.
