1492 CE to 1503 CE
Peter Visscher the Elder creates a monumental effigy of Prince-Archbishop Ernest for Magdeburg Cathedral.
His chief early work, it is surrounded with statuettes of the Apostles under semi-Gothic canopies.
It is purer in style than his Shrine of Saint Sebald at Nuremburg, which he will complete between 1508 and 1519.
