Master of the Furies

"Furie", circa 1610

Master of the Furies is the provisional name of an ivory sculptor working in the early 17th century. The name is derived from his characteristic work, showing shouting furies, in the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna. All his works are without any signature. The earliest record of his works are found in an inventory of Maria Magdalena of Austria.
