It lies in the German aristocrat Uta of Ballenstedt (1000-1046). Her face is sculpted on one of the finest surviving medieval carvings of a female face: the one that can be admired in Naumburg Cathedral. She married the Margrave, Eckard II of Meissen. Since they had no children, the couple bequeathed their entire fortune to the church, which then commissioned a master from Naumburg to depict them as donors in separate statues. Her image, radiating exceptional beauty, began to spread after it was photographed in the twenties, becoming an icon of Teutonic art. Walt Disney’s colorist Wolfgang Reitherman mentioned the polychrome sculpture to his boss and encouraged him to visit it during a trip to Europe in 1935. Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister, accused the animation studio of insulting his country by portraying the wicked stepmother in Snow White (1937) with features of Uta.
