Matthias Schraudolph


Matthias or Mathias Schraudolph was a German painter and Benedictine monk in Metten Abbey under the religious name Frater Lucas OSB.
Born in Oberstdorf, he studied art under his brothers Johann and Claudius "without reaching as his role models". He mainly produced altarpieces and other religious works for Metten Abbey and neighbouring parish churches. Many of his works were removed from churches after 1950 as 19th century art became less and less popular. He died in Metten.
