German Renaissance wall painting and ornament in stone and wood, (1898). 'Figs 1-8: Portions of painted frescoes in the Church at interior of the celebrated Church at Freudenstadt, built by the Ducal Architect Heinrich Schickhardt, of Herrenberg, and the examples on our plate are sufficient witness of its rich and magnificent decoration. In the detail of this splendid composition by the painter Jakob Zuberlein we observe a capricious and rather wild when we see how agreeable and harmonious is the impression produced by the rich colouring of the decoration and details , we cannot but pay high respect to this period of Art, the more so as at that time the aim in the decoration of Protestant churches was to break with the old traditions, and to create new forms on entirely rational principles - an experiment which was attended with marked success in the Church at Freudenstadt'. The Stadtkirche Freudenstadt, designed by Heinrich Schickhardt, was completed in 1615. Plate 78a from "The Historic Styles of Ornament" translated from the German of H. Dolmetsch. [ Batford, London, 1898]
