Egid Quirin Asam (1 September 1692 – 29 April 1750)[1] was a German plasterer, sculptor, architect, and painter.[2] He was active during the Late Baroque and Rococo periods.[3]
Born in Tegernsee, Bavaria,[4] Asam worked mainly together with his brother, the architect and painter Cosmas Damian Asam. Because of this, their common work is often attributed to the Asam Brothers. Asam died in Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg.[4]
