Yes, there are no dated works of Riemenschneider the last ten years of his life, presumably because his fall from grace or the result of torture . . .


Because Tilman was imprisoned during the uprising (1525) and (if it is true) his hands were broken, it would be an assumption his studio & tools were destroyed as well. One must time-travel to that era to sort it out. Sounds barbaric in today's world, but it is indeed history.
