"Master ES: A Master of Intrigue and Mystery in 15th Century Art" Step into the enchanting world of Master ES, a masterful artist whose creations have captivated art enthusiasts for centuries.

The influence of Israhel van Meckenem becomes evident when examining works such as "Saint Simon Zelotes (?) or Saint Judas Thaddeus (?)" and "Saint Bartholomew.
