| Author's biography |
| Portuguese painter, the most important Portuguese painter of the 15th century. First recorded in 1463 as court painter to Alfonso V (1437-81). His St Vincent Altar for Lisbon Cathedral was destroyed in 1755, no works certainly by his hand survive, but there is strong circumstantial evidence that he was responsible for the St Vincent polyptych (Lisbon Museum, c.1460-70), the outstanding Portuguese painting of the 15th century. The style is rather dry, but powerfully realistic, and the polyptych contains a superb gallery of highly individualized portraits of members of the court, including a presumed self-portrait. There are affinities with contemporary Burgundian and Flemish art, especially the work of Bouts. |
