Gerard David - LoveToKnow 1911 |
 | | GERARD DAVID [GHEERAERT Davit, (?-1523), Netherlands painter, born at Oudewater in Holland between 1450 and 1460, was the last great master of the Bruges school. |
 | | David's "Pieta" in the National Gallery, and the "Descent from the Cross," in the Cavallo collection, Paris (Guildhall, 1906), were painted under this influence and are remarkable for their dramatic movement. |
 | | Eberhard Freiherr von Bodenhausen published in 1905 a very comprehensive monograph on Gerard David and his School (Munich, F. Bruckmann), together with a catalogue raisonne of his works, which, after careful sifting, are reduced to the number of fortythree. |
