Master of the Holy Kinship (Clan) the Younger, active c. (1490-1515)

• Was a German painter of the Middle Ages.
• He was active between 1475 and 1515 in Cologne.
• He is designated "The Younger" to distinguish him from another Master, given the same name, who worked in that area from 1410 to 1440.
• His notname is derived from a shuttered altarpiece at the Wallraf-Richartz-Museum in Cologne, created c.1503.
• The central part of the triptych is a holy kinship scene, with Saint Catherine and Saint Barbara, which also makes it a mystical marriage tableau.
