Lot 876 | Schenck, Christoph Daniel
Schenck, Christoph Daniel - Konstanz 1633-1691 - Pectoral cross of a clergyman. Boxwood, worked in relief on both sides, patinated brass mounts. On one side Christ on the cross above a Mater Dolorosa and incised signature "C.D. S." (worn) and indistinct date "16..". On the other side, among other things, depiction of Saint Anthony of Padua. Signs of wear, age damages, minor defects. - German private collection. Christoph Daniel Schenck came from a Constance family of sculptors, he probably learned from his father Hans Christoph Schenck, who came to Constance from Mindelheim. Christ Daniel Schenck worked for the Prince Bishop of Constance and for important monasteries in his diocese. In addition to large wooden sculptures, for example the crucifixion group in the Leonhardskapelle in Sonderbuch near Zwiefalten, Schenck has specialized primarily in small-size relief panels made of boxwood as well as small figures and relief works made of ivory, which show all his masterly skills. He usually signed and dated his works with his initials "C.D.S." or "C.D.Schenck". By doing so, a large number of works could be reliably attributed. A pectoral cross by Schenck of a similar size and depicting St. Christopher was once in the Municipal Museum in Ulm. Due to the signature on the lower edge of the cross, the cross presented at hand can certainly be attributed to Christoph Daniel Schenck. Lit.
