Hello and welcome to my userpage! I'm Kentuckian, I am from southeast Kentucky in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains. As an Eastern Kentuckian I like to create and improve articles on Appalachia (app-a-latch-uh) and Kentucky, to help improve coverage of a neglected area in the United States. One of my favorite pastimes is reverting vandalism, but you may also find me reviewing new pages and pending changes. I also occasionally do image restorations. I usually restore images relating to Appalachian history and politics, but I will occasionally dabble in other areas as well.

If you want to know more about me you can look at my userboxes.

Wood carving of the death of Mary from the Kefermarkt altarpiece
The Kefermarkt altarpiece is a richly decorated wooden altarpiece in the Late Gothic style in the parish church of Kefermarkt in Upper Austria. Commissioned by the knight Christoph von Zelking, it was completed around 1497. Saints Peter, Wolfgang and Christopher are depicted in the central section. The wing panels depict scenes from the life of Mary, and the altarpiece also has an intricate superstructure and two side figures of Saints George and Florian. The identity of its maker, known by the notname Master of the Kefermarkt Altarpiece, is unknown, but at least two skilled sculptors appear to have created the main statuary. Throughout the centuries, it has been altered and lost its original paint and gilding; a major restoration was undertaken in the 19th century under the direction of Adalbert Stifter. The altarpiece has been described as "one of the greatest achievements in late-medieval sculpture in the German-speaking area". This image shows the lower-left wing panel of the Kefermarkt altarpiece, depicting the death of Mary. She lies peacefully in her deathbed, while a diminutive angel holds the curtain apart so that the viewer can see Mary better. The twelve apostles are all present, each one depicted with individual traits. Above the head of Saint Peter, Christ appears in a cloud, receiving the soul of his mother in the form of a small figure.Sculpture credit: Master of the Kefermarkt Altarpiece; photographed by Uoaei1
