MEMLING, Hans

Netherlandish Northern Renaissance Painter, ca.1435-1494 South Netherlandish painter of German origin.

Their principal innovation was to apply optic realism to devotional or mystical subjects. Although Memling lived in the turbulent period of transition from the Burgundian ruling house to that of the Habsburgs, little of this is evident in his work. His commissions were almost exclusively from rich burghers in Bruges (bankers, merchants and politicians) or churchmen and the occasional aristocrat. Often they were foreigners, especially Italians, who had political or financial connections with the town, whose central economic position was to last only a few decades longer. They had Memling paint their portraits, bust or full length, in devotional paintings or on altarpieces for their chapel in Bruges or back home. He seems not to have received official commissions (from the town council or court). An exceptional proportion of this oeuvre has survived. Besides about 20 altarpieces, often in several panels and of considerable size,   Related Paintings of MEMLING, Hans :. | Scenes from the Passion of Christ (detail) sh | Evangelist Johannes | The Presentation in the Temple (detail sg | Diptych with the Deposition | Scenes from the Passion of Christ (detail) sg |
