Konrad Witz
Konrad Witz (1400/1410 probably in Rottweil, Germany – winter 1445/spring 1446 in Basel, Switzerland) was a German-born painter, active mainly in Basel, Switzerland. His 1444 panel, ''The Miraculous Draft of Fishes'' (a portion of a lost altarpiece) has been credited as the earliest extant faithful portrayal of a landscape in European art history, being based on observation of real topographical features.〔Borchert, Till-Holger. ''Van Eych to Durer: The Influence of Early Netherlandish painting on European Art, 1430-1530''. London: Thames & Hudson, 2011. 58. ISBN 978-0-500-23883-7〕
Witz is most famous for painting three altarpieces, all of which survive only partially. The earliest is the ''Heilspiegel Altarpiece'' of about 1435 (today mostly in the Kunstmuseum, Basel, with isolated panels in other collections). The next is the ''Altarpiece of the Virgin'' (c. 1440), which has been associated with panels now in Basel, Nuremberg, and Strasbourg (Musée de l’Œuvre Notre-Dame). Witz's final altarpiece is the ''St. Peter Altarpiece'' of 1444, painted for St. Peter's Cathedral, Geneva, and now in the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire, Geneva, which contains his most famous composition, the ''Miraculous Draught of Fishes''.
The painting of ''St. Christopher'' (Kunstmuseum, Basel; illustrated) does not seem to be related to these major altarpieces. Other independent works by Witz and his followers can be found in Naples, Berlin, and New York (Frick Collection).
