Follower of Sebastiano del Piombo, Italian 1485-1547- The women of Weinsberg carrying their husbands on their backs; oil on canvas, 92.5 x 127 cm. Provenance: Property from a European Private Collection. Note: This painting depicts a moment in the German saga of the Women of Weinsberg. When, in 1140, King Conrad III of the Hohenstaufen dynasty defeated the Duke Welf of Bavaria, he placed the city of Weinsberg under siege. As the city surrendered, the King gave the women of Weinsberg permission to leave with whatever they could carry on their shoulders. Instead of gathering any possessions, each woman instead took her own husband on her shoulders and carried him out of the city to safety. Although the present picture shows a subject from Germanic folklore, the artist was clearly heavily influenced by the works of Roman artists like Sebastiano del Piombo and Raphael (1483-1520). Rome became a hub for travelling artists from Northern Europe during the later 16th century, including the Swiss artist Joseph Heintz the Elder (1564-1609) and the Flemish artist Bartholomaeus Spranger (1546-1611), who applied the stylistic elements they learned by copying the Italian masters to subjects popular with their own North European audiences.
