<p> a German painter, was born at [[Nuremberg]] in 1490, and studied under Hans Holbein the elder. He executed a set of twelve pictures, representing the history of [[Joseph]] and his Brethren, which gained him great celebrity, though he succeeded better in portraits than in history. He painted the emperor [[Charles]] V, who honored him with a gold medal and chain. He is supposed by some to have died in 1563, by others in 1550. </p> | <p> a German painter, was born at [[Nuremberg]] in 1490, and studied under Hans Holbein the elder.
