Meister des Friedrichsaltars, around 1440/60 court painter in Vienna and Wiener Neustadt. He is named after the painted wings of the carved altar donated by Emperor Friedrich III to the Neuklosterkirche at Wiener Neustadt in 1447 (also: Wiener Neustädter Altar; it was brought to St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna in 1884). The wings of the altar show four rows of portraits of saints; on the predella are scenes from the childhood and Passion of Christ. The altar of the Spitalskirche at Bad Aussee (Styria) and the outer wings at the altar of Znaim (around 1440/50, Österreichische Galerie Belvedere, Vienna) are also ascribed to the artist's workshop. His rather conservative style of painting is strongly based on the form principles of the Soft Style.
