The Life and Training of Franz Tymmermann
Born in Hamburg, Germany, Franz Tymmermann was a painter of the early Renaissance. In 1538, the Hamburg Council sent him to Wittenberg for training under the painter and mayor of Wittenberg, Lucas Cranach the Elder. This apprenticeship was conducted under specific conditions: he was required to sign a written commitment stating that he could not settle anywhere other than Hamburg without the Council's knowledge and consent. By 1539, he sent a painting to the Council, and by 1541, his training appeared to be complete, as the Council provided funds for his return journey, clothing, and a painting. During this period, he was referred to in the city's accounting books as a painter of the Council.
