Biography:
Urs Graf was initially trained by his father and then apprenticed to a local goldsmith in Zurich. He first made a living by designing book illustrations and working as the assistant to a stained-glass painter. He entered the goldsmith’s guild in 1512 and became a citizen of Basel. He was repeatedly arrested for beating his wife and supporting prostitution until in 1518, he was forced to leave after a murder attempt. The city invited him to return and work as the mint’s die cutter in 1519, but he left the city once again eight years later.
