I went to the great universe of knowledge and searched for a period painting of Spring. I found just such a painting, titled “The Spring” by Pieter Bruegel, a mid 16th century Flemish painter working around Antwerp. Perfect! Ex- cept, not quite perfect… this image is a bit low res. So I went looking for a better one. And I found it, except that this one is attributed to Jacob Grimmer, a mid 16th century Flemish painter working out of Antwerp. ??! So I did a deep dive and found that: 1. Pieter Bruegel was born in the Netherlands in 1525, and went to work in Antwerp in 1556, for an artist and engraver named Hieronymus Cock. 2. Jacob Grimmer was born and raised (and spent his whole life) in Antwerp. 3. By 1547, Grimmer was a master of the guild of Saint Luke. 4. As early as 1550, Jacob Grimmer was praised by the famous Italian art critic Giorgio Vasari as one of the best landscape painters of his time. 5. Artist Karel van Mander described Grimmer as 'such an outstanding landscape painter that in some respects I do not know a better one’ 6. Grimmer trained Rembrandt. Yes, THAT Rembrandt. And records of Rembrandt’s belongings show that he owned at least one Landscape by Jacob Grimmer. 7. Jacob Grimmer was known locally and renowned as a poet and author of comic writings, in addition to his painting skill. 8. And Yet, somehow today, Jacob Grimmer is mostly regarded as an imitator of Pieter Bruegel (the guy who didn’t even arrive in Antwerp until 9 years after Jacob was made a master of the local guild. On page 4 and 5 of this Mewsletter, I have included details of these two great artists undated “Spring” paintings. They were both, clearly very talented artists. I will leave it to you, gentle reader, to try and decide who was copying whom. Article submitted by Lord Gustav.

(155.3 X 256 cm) PROVENANCE Marchesa de Bermejillo del Rey, by the early 20th century And by descent to the previous owner Private Collection, Spain, until 2015 LITERATURE M. Diaz Padrón, ‘La Obra de Pedro Brueghel el jóven en Espana”, Archivo Espanol de Arte, 1980, p. 309, fig. 18. K. Ertz, Pieter Brueghel der Jüngere, Lingen, 2000, vol. II, p. 702, no. A830. Against a backdrop of rolling farmlands and a giant windmill, a wedding party makes its way along a road from the village on the right, where preparations are being made for the wedding feast, to the church in the upper left-hand corner. As was customary, the bride and groom walk separately, each processed by a man playing a doedelzac (bagpipes). Tall trees single out the groom, who is identified by the wedding crown he wears on top of his bright red cap. He is followed by two older men, probably the fathers of the bridal couple, and the other menfolk of the village. Then comes the plump and solemn-looking bride, wearing a bridal crown and flanked on either side by pages. She is attended by the two mothers and the other female members of the party. Work in the fields has all but stopped: three sacks of flour sit at the foot of the windmill and a cart stands idle. The workers have all turned out to accompany the wedding procession on its way: among the crowd of well-wishers are young men and old, a shepherd, a miller, his face white with flour, and many more besides.

ISSN: 1949-9833 JHNA 3:1 (Winter 2011) 1 ENVISIONING NETHERLANDISH UNITY: CLAES VISSCHER’S 1612 COPIES OF THE SMALL LANDSCAPE PRINTS Alexandra Onuf Scholars have long recognized the formal significance of Claes Jansz. Visscher’s 1612 copies of the Small Landscape prints for the development of seventeenth-century Dutch landscapes. The prints, which were originally published in Antwerp in the mid-sixteenth century, represent the rural terrain of Brabant with a direct naturalism and topographic specificity that would later become a hallmark of Dutch Golden Age landscape prints and paintings. This article focuses on the content of the series and attempts to understand the Dutch market and appreciation for views of Brabant in the early seventeenth century. Published in the early years of the Twelve Years’ Truce, likely with the vast émigré population of Southern Netherlanders in mind, the prints visually restore Brabant to its pre-Revolt past of peace and prosperity at the same time as they stimulate hope for a reunification of this lost southern province into a new United Nether- lands.10.5092/jhna.2011.3.1.4 1 laes Jansz.

KdZ 6696. Pen and brown ink, washed with bistre, 216 x 555 mm, signed and dated: Martijn hemskeric 1535 INTRODUCTION During the sixteenth century, many Netherlandish artists1 made a study trip to Italy, and more in particular to Rome, mainly as a completion of the artistic education they had started in their native country. Having arrived in the southern peninsula, they looked for prestigious commissions or employment in an Italian workshop. Many artists returned home after some years, others built up a life and career in the city and stayed. It has been generally acknowledged that northern artists travelled to Italy to learn from Antiquity and their contemporary Italian masters and that in Rome in particular, they made drawings of all the things they admired in the city which they could use in their work. Nonetheless, it remains questionable to what extent and for which purposes northern artists have collected visual material in Rome. Furthermore, it is certainly not clear if the practice of drawing ‘from nature’ may be regarded as one of the main reasons for sixteenth century northern artists to set off for a journey southwards.

    VP4795 MARTEN VAN CLEVE the Elder (c. 1527 – Antwerp – before 1581) The Wedding Dance Outdoors circa 1570 On panel, 30¼ x 41⅜ ins. (77 x 105 cm) PROVENANCE: Private collection, Italy, for at least 80 years, until 2016 Considered a follower of Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c. 1527/30-1569), Marten van Cleve reveals all his inventiveness in this wedding celebration. While the theme is indeed borrowed from the pictorial production of the Brueghel family, the painting’s style and originality shows an independent and innovative artist. Van Cleve was undoubtedly influenced by the peasant life inherent in Bruegel’s paintings, but his composition is unique in its rendering of one of the most widespread subjects of the era. Just like Bruegel, Marten van Cleve found the subjects for his paintings in scenes of daily life, especially peasant feasts and celebrations. Peasant weddings were a favourite subject which he portrayed in numerous panels. The version presented here draws direct inspiration from two sources. First of all, a wedding scene painting by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, dated 1566, in the Detroit Institute of Artsi. Secondly, an engraving by Pieter van der Heyden based on a drawing by Pieter Bruegel the Elderii. Van Cleeve copies the position of the three couples dancing in the foreground. The couple composed of the bride and groom is just behind and is also taken from the painting in Detroit. Contrary to numerous small-size paintings portraying this subject, this work appears to be an exception to Marten van Cleve’s body of work. Here he offers a far more spacious and airy scene.
