Product information "Hans Daucher: Replica 'Putti from the Fugger Chapel II' (around 1530), artificial stone with antique finish"
In 1509, Jakob Fugger also donated the Fugger Chapel in St Anne's Church in Augsburg, which was designed by Albrecht Dürer: it was the first building north of the Alps to be imbued with the spirit of humanism. The tomb of the Fugger brothers, built by 1512, magnificently decorated in the following years and consecrated in 1518, was the glamorous prelude to the Renaissance in Germany and one of its high points. Alongside Albrecht Dürer, some of the most important German artists of the Renaissance were involved in its creation. The putti that adorn the balustrade of the Fugger Chapel and 'guard' the Fuggers' burial place are unique and full of charm. ars mundi, in collaboration with the House of Fugger, is able to offer you the famous putti as authentic, slightly reduced museum replicas for the 500th anniversary of the foundation of the Fugger Chapel in St. Anna exclusively and for the first time! Each piece is carefully moulded by hand in polymer artificial stone and patinated with an antique finish. Putti from the Fugger Chapel II, around 1530: size 28 x 27 x 16 cm (W/H/D), weight 11 kg.
