Life of HANS KRUMPER


 Advertisements

 
  German sculptor, decorator, painter and architect. In 1584 he was apprenticed to Hubert Gerhard, who worked for the court at Munich of William V, Duke of Bavaria (reg 1579-98), where Krumper s father, a wood-carver, was also employed. During his apprenticeship Krumper worked on the new wings of the Residenz built round the Grottenhof, and probably also on the over life-size terracotta figures made in Gerhard s workshop for the Michaelskirche, Munich.
  In 1590 he was awarded a one-year scholarship to be spent in Italy, but no further details concerning this are known. Two years later he married a daughter of the court painter Friedrich Sustris. From 1594 Krumper received a fixed salary from the court, but, after William V s abdication in 1598, he was only able to work for him in a private capacity. Not until 1609 was Krumper made a member of the court household of William s successor, Maximilian I, Duke of Bavaria (reg 1597-1651).
