Strigel, Bernhard (1460-1528)

German painter. He worked in Memmingen, Bavaria, as portrait painter to the Viennese Habsburg court and, late in life, as court painter to the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I. Sybilla von Freyberg (Alte Pinakothek, Munich) is an example of his portraits.

Strigel studied in Ulm and later worked in Augsburg with Hans Burgkmair. He imitated the Milanese artist Ambrogio da Predis (c. 1455-after 1508) in his profile portraits.
