Bosch

Hieronymus Bosch (1450 – 1516) was a Dutch/Netherlandish painter and draughtsman from Brabant. He is one of the most notable representatives of the Early Netherlandish painting school. His work contains fantastic illustrations of religious concepts and narratives. Within his lifetime his work was collected in the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain, and widely copied, especially his macabre and nightmarish depictions of hell.

    His pessimistic and fantastical style cast a wide influence on northern art of the 16th century, with Pieter Bruegel the Elder being his best-known follower. Today he is seen as a hugely individualistic painter with deep insight into humanity's desires and deepest fears. His most acclaimed works consist of a few triptych altarpieces, including The Garden of Earthly Delights.

      Periods: Northern Renaissance, Renaissance, Dutch and Flemish Renaissance, Gothic art, Baroque, Dutch Golden Age, Early Netherlandish painting.
