St. Maria in der Kupfergasse: Altar

@Linerberry: The light is quite good, because the windows are uncoloured. I was glad it was shining right in, though.

@WABIKOJA: Thanks very much!

@JoeB: I wonder how they got it into the church; the entrance is much smaller than this altar. (It is newer than the church, so it must have been delievered and reassembled later.)

@Eleftheria: Unfortunately I don't have any data on these antique looking figures on the border.

@Steven: A lucky moment on an otherwise grey day.

@Observing: Knock on wood! ;-)

@Lee: Many thanks, Lee! Glad you like it!

@Twelvebit: There was an even more ornate altar before this one (which got lost during the French occupation).

@Laurie: This style is quite seldom, as there are not many Baroque churches here. The few carved altars that survived the eras are usually much older and looking like this one.

@Evelyne Dubos: It was not that easy to get this shot; the small church is usually filled with believers and I didn't want to disturb them. I took this shot as regardful as possible.

@PD: Fits perfect into this church. The question is: how did they get it in?

@Kulikowski: Always going for the scene! :-)

@Ted: If that was true it would be great, but usually light conditions in churches are terrible - see here or here. This is okay for meditative or moody shots, but if you want a more documentatory character for your photo, you will have to develop a steady hand (I'm tremble-free up to a quarter second, haha!), or use a tripod.

@Japanalia: Many thanks!
According to my data it was carved by only by the two artists I've mentioned above. I didn't found many about them, unfortunately.
