Daniel Lindtmayer the younger

Daniel Lindtmayer the younger

In addition to his training as a glass painter, Daniel Lindtmayer completed an apprenticeship as a painter between 1566 and 1570, probably with Tobias or Abel Stimmer in Schaffhausen. After a few years as a journeyman, he settled in Schaffhausen, but travelled  also in Graubünden and in central Switzerland - e.g. with Franz Fallenter. Only preliminary drawings for woodcuts have survived of the biblical .scenes and landscapes  for  wall paintings commissioned at the house "Zun Drei Standen" for the Schaffhausen town clerk Hans Forrer. His last dated sketch dates from 1603. His oeuvre known today includes around 350 drawings, including designs for facade and wall paintings, sketches for glass panels and woodcuts, as well as four etchings and a few paintings.
