The German painter and graphic artist Hans Holbein the Elder. (C. 1465-1424) overcame in the color treatment, the medieval usual local color. This is succeeded by him, that he the color of the light-adapted and room situations and voted with the image content. Through his pysiognomisches interest and type of characterization he proposed the transfer of German portrait painting to the Renaissance.
His apprenticeship completed Holbein probably in an Augsburg workshop (see: S.427) and made probably in his early years a trip to the Netherlands or to the Lower Rhine. In 1493 he is mentioned as a citizen of the Free City of Ulm and 1494 is his name in the tax the city of Augsburg recorded. In Augsburg, the artists have a garage business has talked to several agents, where he was assigned to work for the church before he moved 1516 to the Upper Rhine.

The artistic works of Hans Holbein the Elder. consists of altarpieces, portraits, each panel paintings, pen and silver pen drawings, but also designs for stained glass. Holbein chose the color of the image definition and waived in the Grey Passion entirely on the chromatic color.
On pages 52-53 you can get a first visual impression of the horror of passion in the closed and open state, the panels are designed as single images and to continue to meditation and contemplation in the Stations of the saving work of Christ, ( see: p.61). The structure and the scenic equipment are explained very well and it is in Knowledge set, which had Holbein role models for this work. The color effect of the Grey Passion is significantly influenced by the background of the panels. Furthermore you can find on pages 67-68 details, and then delve into the color scheme.
is very exciting to read the essay, which addresses the restoration of the Grey Passion. Discussed the history of restoration, conservation status, the characters, the foreground, the varnish will but also the restoration itself
