This lecture will be hybrid. Please book your ticket for attendance in person or online. You will receive access to the online event via email the day before the event.Abstract As early as 1953, Erwin Panofsky stated that the painted architecture in ‘Early Netherlandish Paintings’ is of great importance and complexity. Yet it has never been analysed and half of the research today does not even mention any painted buildings. Bringing together methods of historical building research and art history, this seminar will highlight not only Rogier van der Weyden’s great knowledge of the building techniques of his time but also emphasise architecture as an iconographical subject in its own right. By introducing construction errors well placed in his Nativities, van der Weyden had been integrating meaning that has so far remained  undiscovered.About Thomas Eißing and Nathalie-Josephine von MöllendorffThomas Eißing is director of the laboratory of Dendrochronology and Timber Construction at the Otto-Friedrich-Universität Bamberg.
