Description:
|
|
Jan de Beer was a painter active in the first third of the 16th century, associated with the group known as the Antwerp Mannerists. The work of these artists is characterized by the use of minute detail in the backgrounds and by the poses of the figures, resulting in a style that combined late Gothic and Renaissance elements. This panel is one of two in the museum that must have been part of a larger ensemble on the Life of the Virgin. The figures show an elongation similar to Italian Mannerism. The objects depicted in the room almost function as independent, still-life elements. (Source: Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum [website]; https://www.museothy ssen.org/en/)
