The Choleric Temperament

  • Data creației1511
  • Dimensiuni31.0 x 20.0 cm

Hans Leonhard Schäufelein (1480 – 1540)

Explore the graceful narratives & woodcuts of Hans Leonhard Schäufelein (1480-1540), a German painter known for his work in Nuremberg & Augsburg, including altarpieces & playing cards.

This work belongs to a set of personifications of the Four Temperaments. A landmark in the history of art, the series is the first post-antique representation of the theory of the physician and writer Hippocrates (460–370 BCE) that human well-being and health depend on the balance of four bodily fluids, or humors. Each humor was later linked to a particular personality. Nervous, energetic, ambitious, aggressive, and inclined to emotional outbursts, a person with a choleric temperament was thought to have small but pronounced muscles, sharply defined features, and abundant hair, as seen here.
