Short Description
"Conrad Meit or (usual in German) Conrat Meit (1480s in Worms; 1550/1551 in Antwerp) was a German-born Late Gothic and Renaissance sculptor, who spent most of his career in the Low Countries.

The royal tombs that were his largest works still had elaborate Late Gothic architectural frameworks by others, but Meit´s figures were Renaissance in conception and style. Meit´s work, with its delicately worked plasticity and pronounced corporality, brought an entirely new form of expression to Late Gothic church sculpture. The anatomy of his nude figures draws more from Albrecht Dürer than from classical sculpture." - (en.wikipedia.org 31.10.2019)
