	Hans Memling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Memling did indeed paint for the Hospitallers, but he painted not one but many pictures, and he did so in 1479 and 1480, being probably known to his patrons of St John by many masterpieces even before the battle of Nancy.
		All that Memling did was to purge his master's manner of excessive stringency, and add to his other qualities a velvet softness of pigment, a delicate transparence of colours, and yielding grace of slender forms.
		The masterpiece of Memling's later years, a shrine containing relics of St Ursula in the museum of the hospital of Bruges, is fairly supposed to have been ordered and finished in 1480.

	Biography
		Hans Memling (also spelled Memlinc), leading Flemish painter of the Bruges school during the period of the city's political and commercial decline.
		Memling, born in the region of the Middle Rhine, was apparently first schooled in the art of Cologne and then travelled to the Netherlands (c.
		In Memling's large triptych (a painting in three panels, generally hinged together) of the Adoration of the Magi (Prado, Madrid), one of his earliest works, and in the altarpiece of 1479 for Jan Floreins (Memling-Museum, Brugge), the influence of Rogier's last masterpiece, the Columba Altarpiece (1460-64; Alte Pinakothek, Munich), is especially noticeable.

		Memling's heaven is populated, whereas Rogier's was not, and Memling's Hell is full of demons.
		Memling would also receive a commission from a manuscript illuminator, Willem Vrelant, who was his friend, for an altarpiece to decorate the chapel maintained by the guild of stationers.
		This indicates that Memling was far from insipid, that he truly understood some of the more complex elements of Jan van Eycks works, namely his very self-conscious references to the power of illusionism and the reality of his artifice.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Hans Memling
		This valuable text destroys the celebrated legend of Memling, which relates that this great painter, a soldier of Charles the Bold, was wounded at the battle of Granson, and was cared for at Bruges by the Hospitallers of St. John.
		These characteristics have their origin elsewhere, and the very legend concerning Memling, the story of a man coming as a stranger to art by a special vocation, is an unhistorical attempt to account for this singularity.
		James Weale had already conjectured that Memling's name contained the key to the enigma and concealed the clew to the painter's origin; he thought that it was according to a frequent custom of the Middle Ages, the name of a country.

	Last chance to save a painting by Hans Memling, Portrait of a Man in a Black Cap
		Memling may have started his career in the workshop of the great Netherlandish painter Rogier van der Weyden, and he was also strongly influenced by the work of his contemporary Hugo van der Goes.
		Memling's work was greatly admired in Italy, and a number of Florentine painters copied motifs from his landscape backgrounds and incorporated them in their own compositions.
		Memling was also a highly accomplished portraitist, as is evident not only in the donor portraits included in many of the altarpieces, but also in the surviving portraits of individuals, which are delicately characterised and extremely skilfully painted.

		With the exception of the Floreins triptych in the same hospital, this is the only work by Memling to be authenticated by an original (in this case subsequently overpainted) inscription.

	Christian Iconography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
		Like other fifteenth-century Flemish painters working in the wake of Jan van Eyck, Hans Memling cloaked religious imagery in the pictorial language of everyday life, paying close attention to naturalistic detail.
		A soft glowing light falls on the Virgin and suffuses the room, elevating the scene from the realm of the ordinary and signaling the sacred nature of the drama.
		It has been suggested, however, that the final number of the inscription had become illegible and that the year recorded was actually 1489, a date more consonant with the painting's style.

		Hans Memling was the dominant figure of the late fifteenth century in Bruges.
		However, Memling's portrait of Christ is neither severe nor characterized by tragic pathos.
		In form and feeling, it shares much with contemporary Italian portraiture: the search for clarity and order, the monumental effect achieved by filling the frame with Christ's head and shoulders, and the close-up view of the delicately modeled face.

		His was the other side of the coin of later Netherlandish painting as represented by the work of Hugo van der Goes and Rogier van der Weyden, whose paintings may display anxiety or aristocratic introspection.
		At the peak of his career, Memling may already have assumed a certain nostalgia, close to a Gothic revival approximating, in the happiest sense, a Burgundian deja vu that allowed the foreign patron or collector to associate himself or herself with a more modest variant of the opulence and substance of ducal high life.
		Often working for Italian and Spanish clients, Memling was also open to such Renaissance elements as a new sense for abstract form, and for the characterization of the Child that was close to these foreign sources.

		Some critics, like Kammerer (Memling, 1899) have sought, without good reason, to augment this catalogue by adding to it other works by analogy.
		Vasari and Guicciardini relate that Memling was the pupil of Rogier van der Weyden, but the only work of Memling's with a trace of Roger's influence is after a Pieta, in a church of Cologne.
		When we compare the early works of Gerard David, so harsh and brutal, such as the Justice of Otto and the Marriage of Cana of the Louvre, with those which were later executed under Memling's influence, we can estimate the service which the stranger, the duitscher Hans, rendered to the country of his adoption.

		Jan Van Eyck first gained repute at Ghent and the Hague before he acquired a domicile elsewhere, and Memlinc, we have reason to think, was a skilled artist before he settled at Bruges.
		The trustees of his will appeared before the court of wards at Bruges on the 16th of December 1495, and we gather from records of that date and place that Memlinc left behind several children and a considerable property.
