Peter Flötner Artworks collected in Metmuseum

Peter Flötner, also Flatner, Flettner, or Floetner (c. 1490 in Thurgau – 23 October 1546, in Nuremberg) was a German designer, sculptor, and printmaker.  He was a leading figure in the introduction of Italianate Renaissance design to sculpture and the decorative arts in Germany, competing in this regard with the Vischer Family of Nuremberg.  He designed and produced work in a wide range of media, but "seems to have made only a modest living", unlike many of his contemporary artists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Fl%C3%B6tner
