active in Cologne ca 1490/1500 Austrian painter and woodcutter. He is named after two altarpiece wings with three scenes from the Legend of SS Cosmas and Damian: the Miraculous Healing of the Leg, A Husband Commending his Wife to the Saints and the Delivery of the False Message by the Devil (Vienna, Ksthist. Mus.). He is thought to have been the earliest disciple of Lucas Cranach the elder in Austria and to have been later influenced by both Albrecht Altdorfer and J?rg Breu the elder. His rather stately figures are in splayed-out, often affected poses, with the feet and knees twisted outwards, appearing almost dislocated.   Related Paintings of Master of the Legend :. | Ursula Announces Her Pilgrimage to the Court of Her Father (mk05) | Mary, Queen of Heaven | Scenes from the Life of St Ursula | St Nicholas Altarpiece | Virgin and Child with an Angel |
