Description

Explore the life and art of Jan Massys (c. 1510-1573) through this specialized volume from Brepols. As the successor to his father Quinten at the head of Antwerp's most famous workshop, Jan Massys played a significant role in the history of Flemish art. This book traces his dramatic journey, from his early training to the period when his career was interrupted in 1544. After being forced to flee Antwerp due to his involvement with the Loysts sect, Massys found refuge in France and Italy before finally returning to his homeland in 1555. Readers will learn about his return to artistic leadership and his unique body of work. His paintings are notable for their focus on private use and his specific style of depicting elegant figures. This text provides a detailed look at a master painter whose life was marked by both professional success and personal hardship, offering a window into the Renaissance era of Antwerp.
