German Baroque Era Painter, 1578-1610 German painter, printmaker and draughtsman, active in Italy. His small paintings on copper established him after his brief life as the most singular and influential German artist to follow D?rer. Their grand conception in terms of monumental figures and poetic landscape and their meticulous, miniature-like execution were admired by Rubens and came to influence many 17th-century artists, including Rembrandt. Most were produced in Rome after 1600:   Related Paintings of ELSHEIMER, Adam :. | Jupiter and Mercury at Philemon and Baucis fgj | Flight into Egypt fg | Rest on Flight into Egypt (detail) dfg | The Flight to Egypt (mk08) | Jacob's Dream |
