France, Germany, and the Historiography of Gothic Sculpture
Neutral as it might seem to anyone unversed in the fraught historiography of Gothic sculpture, The Naumburg Master: Sculptor and Architect in the Europe of Cathedrals exhibition's emphasis on the artist as an international man was a decision of considerable interpretive weight. Visitors to the show, which highlighted the deep interconnections between the productions of thirteenth‐century France and Germany, may have been puzzled not to find these figures near each other. The photograph, gracing each cover of the three gigantic tomes that comprise the catalog, is what will shape the perceptions of anyone who approaches the field of Gothic sculpture through those magisterial books. In this chapter, it functions as an illustration of representative sculptures from Gothic France and Germany as well as a condensation of the two major issues that have perennially shaped scholarship on this art: nationalism and photography.
