Johann Melchior Dinglinger

Johann Melchior Dinglinger
1664‐1731
A representative metalworker of the Baroque period. Born in Biberach near Ulm, Germany. In 1693 he moved to Dresden to serve Elector Augustus II, and in 1698 was appointed court jeweller. He inherited the metalworking techniques established by Jamnitzer and Cellini, and showed a style closer to the works of Mannerists than to the Baroque. He showed outstanding talent in exotic themes such as ancient Egypt, using intricate decorative techniques of cloisonné and jewellery. [Kagiwada Tsutomu]

バロック時代の代表的な金工家。ドイツのウルム近郊のビベラハに生まれる。1693年ドレスデンに出て選帝侯アウグスト2世に仕え,98年宮廷宝石細工師に任ぜられた。彼はヤムニッツァーやチェリーニが確立した金工技術を継承し,バロック的というよりはマニエリストの作品に近い作風を示した。七宝と宝石細工による精巧な装飾技法で古代エジプトなどのエキゾティックな主題に卓越した才能を発揮した。【鍵和田 務】
