  Carel van Mander - LoveToKnow 1911
CAREL VAN MANDER (1548-1606), Dutch painter, poet and biographer, was born of a noble family at Meulebeke.
His fame is, however, principally based upon a voluminous biographical work on the paintings of various epochs - a book that has become for the northern countries what Vasari's Lives of the Painters became for Italy.
published in 1604, in which year Van Mander removed to Amsterdam, where he died in 1606.

  Karel van Mander
In 1566-1567, Van Mander studied with the painter and poet Lucas d’Heere (1534-1584) in the same city and subsequently, in 1568-69, with the painter Pieter Vlerick (1539-1581) in Kortrijk and Doornik.
Following Van Mander’s death (1606), a new edition of the Schilder-Boeck was published in 1616-1618, to which his own biography was added, probably written by his youngest brother, Adam.

 Staedel-Museum english: 30-06-2006 Lucas van Leyden
Information about the life of Lucas van Leyden is scarce: the most useful biographical source is the “Schilderboek” (“Painter’s Book”) by the Dutch painter and writer Carel van Mander, which was published in 1604 and is based on accounts of the artist’s descendants.
According to Van Mander, Lucas was born in May or June 1494 in Leyden, a town of clothiers and merchants, as the son of the painter Huych Jacobsz.
Van Mander writes that Lucas was a prodigy who engraved his first copperplate at the age of nine, was a painter at twelve, and completed his masterpiece engraving Mohammed and the Monk Sergius in 1508 at the age of 14.

Van Cronenburgh was the secretary of a district in Friesland called Tietjerksteradeel, and van Swanenburgh was councilman and burgomaster of Leiden.
Van Cronenburgh painted portraits of the Frisian nobility, who were still the local rulers in his time, and van Swanenburgh designed stained glass for public buildings in Leiden and worked for township bodies such as the drapers' guild (fig.
Although van Mander was a writer who was quick to exaggerate the successes of his colleagues, he shows a notable disinterest in the political careers of artists, even going so far as to omit from his book altogether the artists who reached the highest stations in non-artistic life.

 History of Art: Gothic Art- Rogier van der Weyden
Active in both Tournai and Brussels, Rogier van der Weyden was one of the most renowned painters of the 15th century, though his reputation declined after the loss of important works in the 17th century and is only now being reinstated.
Rogier van der Weyden was the son of Henri de le Pasture, a cutler in Tournai, and Agnès de Watreloz.
Van der Weyden maintained connections with Tournai and the Tournai guild of painters, which in 1464 held a funeral service in his honour.

 Vincent Art Gallery: About Rogier van Weyden
Jan van Eyck, the great painter from Bruges, also profoundly affected the developing artist, introducing elegance and subtle visual refinements into the bolder, Campinesque components of such early paintings by Rogier as St.
Although as an apprentice Rogier must certainly have met Jan van Eyck when the latter visited Tournai in 1427, it was more likely in Bruges, where Rogier may have resided between 1432 and 1435, that he became thoroughly acquainted with van Eyks style.
By the end of the 16th century the biographer Carel van Mander had referred mistakenly to two Rogiers in Het Schilderboek (1603; "Book of Painters"), and by the middle of the 19th century his fame and art had all but been forgotten.

 Re: Van Eyck's Secret Technique!!!
Carel van Mander, who was like a Flemish version of Vasari, wrote in 1604 about a "primuersel," or flesh-colored priming characteristic of early Netherlandish oil painting.
I examined one of van Mander's paintings at the local museum this morning and could see clearly that he was still using a flesh-colored priming.
Regarding van Eyck's technique, I compared notes with a painter I admire who is very well-versed in current van Eyck scholarship including some articles written in Flemish.

To be able to paint every detail accurately and with comparative ease was so exciting that they overlooked the importance of subordination and balance between the model, the color and the proportion in their pictures.
But if Van Eyck's education left traces of the guild's conventions, Hans Memling (1430-1495) Who followed him and who was not a victim of this education, arrived at an execution that in its absolute realism approached the effects of actual photography-enriched, however, by the superior material of paint.
It was the work of Van Eyck's successors, and the great achievements of the Renaissance as a whole, which brought about the perfection of both the techniques and materials of painting on the one hand, and of the artistic intelligence on the other.

 Odysseus in the Low Countries
Van ‘s Gravenweerts unfaithfulness is less clear-cut than Droste’s, yet he too admits that his version is not always literal, not only since that would be impossible in a verse translation, but also « because that would be repulsive, due to the stiffness of Homer’s treatment ».
With the exception of van der Weerd’s literal prose translation, published in 1901 (22), all Dutch Odysseys until 1950 were composed in hexameters, and written in an artificial diction, tormenting the syntactic rules in far worse a manner than Vosmaer himself had done.

Adriaen van Ostade was the son of the weaver Jan Hendricx van Eyndhoven and Janneke Hendriksdr.
The Ostades are believed to be the first to paint the theme of idle interchanges between the itinerant and resident, and it was one which pretty much remained their own domain (1).

His most influential publication is undoubtedly the Perspective (Leiden, 1604-5), described by Carel van Mander in his biography of the artist as 'a very beautiful book about architecture'; it deservedly earned its place in the libraries of scholars, architects, and artists such as Rubens.
Works by precursors such as Jan Gossaert and Pieter Coecke van Aelst as well as pupils and followers - Hendrik Aerts, Dirck van Delen and Pieter von Bronchorst are included.

One of the most remarkable documents of contact between the peoples of northern Europe and the Ottoman Empire is the series of 10 woodcuts, comprising seven scenes, designed by Pieter Coecke van Aelst (1502-1550).
When he traveled to Constantinople in 1533, he was probably in the entourage of a diplomatic delegation.
But abiding by his Mohammedan law, the Turk would have no images of men or animals; so that nothing came of the plan but time spent in traveling and great loss to the speculators.

For the rest of his life Bruegel was active as both a painter and a designer of prints, although after about 1562 painting seemed to have occupied most of his time.
In 1563 he married Mayken, daughter of Pieter Coeck van Aelst, and they settled in Brussels.

Hals was fond of daylight and silvery sheen, while Rembrandt used golden glow effects based upon artificial contrasts of low light in immeasurable gloom.
The earliest works by Hals that remain, Two Boys Playing and Singing and a Banquet of the Officers of the St Joris Doele or Arquebusiers of St George (1616), show him as a careful draughtsman capable of great finish, yet spirited withal.
