Description : Martin Luther proclaimed that funeral monuments were not necessary objects, but whose creation should have not been altogether banned. This quite ambivalent stand fostered the on-going creation of large scale funeral monuments under the commission of Protestant princes in Northern Europe. How did these artworks, which were intrinsically connected to the traditions of the unreformed church of Rome, oscillate between the creation of a ‘Protestant style’ and palpable disbelief in Lutheran ideas? Featuring keynote Dr. Ivo Raband.
