Painted in 1499 during the Northern Renaissance period, this tempera on panel masterpiece measures an impressive 233x171 cm. The Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, Germany is fortunate to house this remarkable altarpiece with open wings. The image showcases a poignant scene depicting the Dormition of Mary, as she peacefully rests on a canopied bed surrounded by mourning apostles. In her hands, she holds a lighted candle symbolizing her divine presence even in death. Each figure is meticulously painted with intricate details that convey their grief and devotion through prayerful gestures and expressions. Stumme's exceptional skill shines through his ability to capture both human emotion and religious symbolism within this composition. The use of tempera paints adds depth and richness to every brushstroke, enhancing the overall impact of this powerful piece.
