STANETTI, Dionysius
(? - 1767, Körmöcbánya)

St. Florianus

1764
Lime-wood, height: 248 cm
Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest

Two statues (St Donatus and St Florianus) made of gilded lime-wood, one and a halftimes life-size, were at one time in the Church of Our Lady in Körmöcbánya, now demolished. The interior decoration of the church was renewed in the 1760s: the decoration of the high altar and the painting of the ceiling was undertaken by Antal Schmidt, an artist trained in Vienna, while all sculptural work was commissioned from the local master, Dionysius Stanetti.
