Abstract

This paper is devoted to the case—hitherto virtually unknown—of an anonymous French master mason from St.-Denis, active around 1416–30 in the wealthy town of Legnica in Silesia. Invited to Central Europe in the turbulent times of the Hundred Years’ War by the local duke Louis II, in Legnica he executed several works, foremost among them the von der Heyde Chapel at the parish church of Saints Peter and Paul, featuring an impressive stellar vault with a hanging boss. Attributed to the French master on stylistic grounds, it constitutes a unique example of a remarkably mature design from the early phase of Flamboyant architecture, in some respects predating its geographically distant yet stylistically proximate parallels in France itself. This article reconstructs the master’s oeuvre, discusses the chapel’s artistic origin in the Île-de-France of the early fifteenth century, and shows its surprising importance in the history of French late medieval architecture. In this context, the Silesian monument is all the more important because so little architecture survives from the Parisian milieu of the early fifteenth century. The works of the French master active in Legnica analyzed here should be considered as representative examples of the rapid stylistic development that occurred within the initial phase of Flamboyant architecture in France.
西里西亚勒格尼察的冯德教堂与法国火焰风格的早期阶段
这篇论文致力于一个迄今为止几乎不为人知的案例,一位来自圣丹尼斯的匿名法国泥瓦匠,于1416年至30年左右活跃在西里西亚富裕的勒格尼察镇。在百年战争的动荡时期,受当地公爵路易二世的邀请,他前往中欧,在勒格尼察创作了几件作品,其中最重要的是圣彼得和保罗教区教堂的冯德海德礼拜堂,其特色是一个令人印象深刻的带悬挂凸台的星形拱顶。从风格上来说,它是法国大师的杰作,是火焰建筑早期非常成熟的设计的一个独特例子,在某些方面早于其在地理上遥远但在风格上接近法国的相似之处。本文重构了这位大师的作品,探讨了15世纪初法兰西岛小教堂的艺术起源,并展示了它在法国中世纪晚期建筑史上令人惊讶的重要性。在这种背景下,西里西亚纪念碑显得尤为重要,因为15世纪初的巴黎环境中几乎没有建筑留存下来。这里分析的这位活跃在勒格尼察的法国大师的作品应该被视为法国火焰建筑初期风格快速发展的代表性例子。
