Ett metallskrin från 1500-talet : En studie kring proveniens och ikonografi
Sammanfattning: The purpose with this essay is to describe, analyze and interpret a Renaissance casket. The provenience is not very clear. A great part of my investigation is therefore focused on the task to find more information about the origin of this item. The casket has been given a date, 1590 and a master of origin, a goldsmith from Hamburg in the north of Germany. I haven't been able to confirm that information. Even though the matter of my concern is a unique piece of artwork, caskets in general, during the period of my interest are not particularly uncommon. During my work period I was lucky enough to find information that suggests a totally different German goldsmith, a fact that made the research even more exciting. It has broaden the field of investigation to incorporate even Nürnberg, in the south of Germany. Typical styles of the regions have therefore been a part of this investigation. Also the fact that German goldsmiths where contracted by The Swedish Royal Court.
