PENCZ, GEORG, born at Nuremberg
about 1500, died there
in Oct., 1550. German
school; history and portrait
painter, pupil or
follower of Dürer. Admitted
into the guild in
1523, he was banished

soon afterwards, and probably
returned to Nuremberg in 1532. After his
return from Rome, which he visited before
1530 and again in 1539, he was frequently
employed by the council of his native city.
He was one of the best German portrait

occupies the first place among the followers
of Dürer. Works: Adoration of the Magi,
