Condition Report

Wolf Huber (Feldkirch, around 1485 - Passau, 1553) was an Austrian painter, draftsman and architect. He was one of the protagonists of the Danubian school.
From 1515 at least he had to settle in Passau, where shortly afterwards he took office as administrator of Duke Ernesto of Bavaria (from 1517 to 1540), who helped his appointment in the service of the episcopal court. In 1542 the prince-bishop of Salm appointed him official court painter. In 1541 he is remembered as master architect in Passau and in 1546 supervised the building of the Neuburg palace overlooking the Inn, owned by the counts of Salm.
Through the numerous drawings it is possible to reconstruct his movements to the Wolfgangsee, Linz and Vienna. He died in Passau and was buried in the church of the Holy Spirit.
