Scenes from the Life of St Ursula
Oil on wood Groeninge Museum, Bruges The detail depicts the Massacre by the Huns. Throughout the 15th century - a century of perpetual innovation - the great creative figures of Flemish painting were surrounded by many "minor" artists. These lesser-known painters have often been treated with condescension, merely because they happened to be overshadowed by the major creators. But many of them are no less remarkable on that account. Some of the finest work was also produced by anonymous hands, painters such as the Master of the Legend of St Ursula, and the Master of the Adoration of Khanenko. In their day, these painters were widely celebrated for their achievements. , Artist: MASTER of the Legend of St. Ursula , Scenes from the Life of St Ursula (detail) , 1451-1500 , Flemish , painting , religious

The Martyrdom of St
11,000 Virgins 1492-1496 Oil on panel Victoria and Albert Museum, London In 1903, the famous art historian J.M. Friedlender attributed the Scenes from the Life of St Ursula, today in the Groeninge Museum, Bruges, to a painter he called the Master of the Legend of St Ursula. He saw this artist as a particularly talented disciple of Hans Memling and Rogier van der Weyden. In 1921 it was proposed that this anonymous artist was one Pieter Casembroot, a painter from Bruges who had apprenticed to Arnout de Mol, before becoming a master himself in 1459, none of whose works had hitherto been identified. Today, this hypothesis is widely accepted. Casembroot's most productive years were those between 1480 and 1500. We also know that, in around 1480, he began to receive so many commissions that he had to follow the example of his more illustrious colleagues and set up a studio in his own name. , Artist: MASTER of the Legend of St. Ursula , The Martyrdom of St. Ursula and the 11,000 Virgins , 1451-1500 , Flemish , painting , religious

The Last Judgment
248 x 218 cm (centre), 248 x 94 cm (side panels) Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten, Antwerp The majestic arched composition, borrowed from Raphael, the scientific representation of the numerous, animated nude figures, and the dull, brownish but smooth colouring already point to the strongly Italianate tendency in the painting of Van Orley. The subject of the side panels is the Seven Acts of Mercy. , Artist: ORLEY, Bernaert van , The Last Judgment , 1501-1550 , Flemish , painting , religious

Portrait of a Young Boy
136 x 103 cm Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten, Antwerp No matter how versatile individual artists might have been, the splitting up of painting into different specialisms meant that artists often cooperated on a single painting to which each made his own special contribution. Erasmus Quellin and Jan Fyt (1611-1661) painted the Portrait of a Boy, with Quellin portraying the young lad, and Fyt the dogs and falcon. , Artist: QUELLIN, Erasmus II , Portrait of a Young Boy , 1601-1650 , Flemish , painting , portrait
