Master of James IV of Scotland (Flemish illuminator, active ca. 1485-ca. 1530)
|
Note: Named for a portrait of the monarch James IV of Scotland in a devotional manuscript, the Master of James IV of Scotland was one of the finest Flemish illuminators active in the years around 1500. Over a period of more than forty years, the artist contributed to some of the most lavish and important manuscripts of the era, in addition to directing an active workshop. Several pieces of circumstantial evidence, including the fact the illuminator is known to have also executed several large-scale paintings on wood panels, suggest to some that the Master of James IV may be the famed artist Gerard Horenbout. |
