Petrus Christus. Biography - Olga's Gallery Petrus Christus, together with his elder contemporary Rogier van der Weyden, was the successor of the founders of the old Netherlandish school of painting: the van Eyck brothers and Campin. After Christus was made master and citizen of Bruges in 1444, van Eyck’s influence on him faded and was replaced by his interest in van der Weyden and Campin. Since 1462 Petrus Christus and his wife were the members of the Brotherhood of Madonna of the Dry Tree, a religious society, which was engaged in charity and worshiped the immaculate conception of the Virgin. www.abcgallery.com /C/christus/christusbio.html   (383 words)

Haber's Art Reviews: Petrus Christus at the Met That meant that Petrus, from a village by the name of Baerle, had to go through some formalities to manage a profitable workshop. Petrus had little interest in hidden religious symbols, yet another tribute to his modernity. And yet it must take on Petrus, who in a sense gave up on his teacher's symbolic meanings, with a reticence that reminds me of Vermeer, inarticulate before the fate of his women. www.haberarts.com /petrus.htm   (1344 words)

Joel Upton: Petrus Christus Long hidden in the shadows of Jan van Eyck and Roger van der Weyden, Petrus Christus was one of the crucial painters active in the complex development of Flemish painting during a period of remarkable vitality and attainment. Upton contends that Christus's art marks an important stage in the evolution of values from the objective or moral collectivism of the thirteenth century to a more subjective, intensely personal, moral individualism of the latter part of the fifteenth century. Petrus Christus is more than a study of a single painter. www.psupress.org /books/titles/0-271-00672-2.html   (283 words)
