Familierelaties in dit veld wordt een familierelatie met één of meer andere kunstenaars vermeld. Son of Jacob Willemsz van Veen (1456-1535), farmer, his mother is unknown. From Maarten's will of 31 May 1572 we know that he had a brother Willem and two sisters, Neeltgen and Gerritgen. A son of Neeltgen, Jacques van der Heck, became a great friend of his uncle. He owned several paintings by him and benefited greatly from his uncle's inheritance (Grosshans 1980, p. 18). In 1540 he married Maria Jacobsdr. Coninghs (died 1544) (according to Van Mander she was old, rather ugly and stupid, but very rich). His second wife was Marytgen Gerritsdochter (her father was rich and burgomaster of Haarlem in 1510-1516), whom he married somewhere between 1545-1547(Grosshans 1980, p. 25).

Delft When Van Heemskerck studied in Delft under Jan Lucasz. is not known. many ties of friendship however bound him to Delft all his life: maybe these dated from his apprenticeship years? (Grosshans 1980, p. 19, 25-26) Haarlem 1527 - 1532 Van Heemskerck came to Haarlem in 1527 to become a pupil of Jan van Scorel, who came from Utrecht in that year fleeing the political upheavels in that city (he stayed till 1530). After finishing his 'Madonna with St. Luke', he went to Italy. (Grosshans 1980, p. 20) Rome 1532-06 - 1536 Meeting with Giorgio Vasari, probably first week of July; he stayed in Rome with a cardinal, probably Willem van Enckenvoirt (Grosshans p. 20-21); as Van Heemskerck made a drawing of the Arch of Septimus Severus, while it was cleaned from debris (the ruins were cleaned in April for the triumphant entry of Emperor Charles V in June 1536), it is likely, that van Heemskerck was still in Rome in May-June 1536. He probably worked on the decorations for the Emperor's entry in April 1535 (see Dacos/Meijer et al. 1995, under Battista Franco) Tivoli Büttner 2000, p. 220 Mantua 1536 - 1537 Stopped here in 1536 or 1537, during his journey back to the Netherlands. A clue for his stay in Italy is, that several of his paintings from 1536-37 are painted on canvas, a material he started to use in Italy. (Grosshans 1980, p. 22) Dordrecht 1537 Van Heemskerck returned home by way of Dordrecht: he didn't spend the night there, but took a boat to Haarlem the same evening. (see for the curious story of the "murderous inn' in Dordrecht: Grosshans 1980, p. 22-23) Haarlem 1537 - 1572 His first great assignment here were the wings for Jan van Scorel's "Crucifixion" in the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam (lost in the iconoclasm of the late 1560's) ; in Haarlem Van Heemskerck started a close working relationsship (but also friendship) with Dirck Volckertsz. Coornhert. In 1551-52 he was 'vinder' (expert for painting) of the Guild, in 1554 its Dean. Amsterdam 1572 - 1573 During the Spanish siege of Haarlem, van Heemskerck moved to Amsterdam in 1572 (with permission of the Burgomasters of Haarlem), where he stayed with his friend Jacob Rauwaert. in the course of the summer of 1573 he returned to Haarlem, where he participated financially in the reconstruction of the city.

  • Adaptation, Emulation and Innovation: Scorel, Gossaert and Other Artists As a Source of Inspiration for the Young Heemskerck
    ILJA M. VELDMAN Adaptation, emulation and innovation: Scorel, Gossaert and other artists as a source of inspiration for the young Heemskerck The nature and scope of the early oeuvre of Maarten van Heemskerck (1498-1574) long remained indistinct. Produced before his departure for Rome at the end of May 1532, Heemskerck’s early work was also underestimated and misjudged, due to the absence of signatures and dates on many of his paintings and a dearth of other critical information. In his Schilder-boeck (1604), Karel van Mander centers his brief account of the painter’s fijirst thirty-two years on the omanticr anecdote of an artist of humble birth who persists in a career as a painter despite his father’s opposition.1 As Van Mander recounts, Heemskerck’s fijirst apprenticeship to the Haarlem painter Cornelis Willemsz asw cut short when his father fetched him back to their farm in Heemskerk to milk the family’s cows. But the boy ran away from home and apprenticed himself to the Delft painter Jan Lucasz, who taught him to draw and paint well. When Maarten learned of Jan van Scorel’s return from Italy and of the new Italian style he had developed there, he joined him as his assistant in Haarlem. Heemskerck mastered Scorel’s new art of painting so rapidly and so well, Van Mander writes, that one could barely distinguish their works from each other. Thereupon a jealous Scorel sent him away. Defijinition of Heemskerck’s early oeuvre On the basis of Van Mander’s account and the assumption that Scorel’s talents were naturally superior to those of a mere assistant (‘discipel’), much of Heemskerck’s early oeuvre was widely credited to Scorel, including paintings that in time would be recognized as his most outstanding works.

  • Designs for Altarpieces by Maarten Van Heemskerck*
    ILJA M. VELdmAN Designs for Altarpieces by Maarten van Heemskerck* The fame of Maarten van Heemskerck (1498-1574) as a draughtsman rests mainly on his drawings of classical sculptures and ruins made during his Roman stay (1532-1536/1537). The 66 folios of his travel sketchbook and more than seventy other, larger drawings are preserved in the Berlin Kupferstichkabinett; several Roman drawings are found in other Print Rooms as well.1 A large collection of these drawings, equally admired by contemporaries and modern spectators, were carefully kept together by the painter during his life. After his death they came into the possession of his friend and pupil Jacob Rauwaert, and they were subsequently owned by Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem and Pieter Jansz Saenredam. In the second half of the eighteenth century, the bulk of the drawings were assembled in two albums which were acquired by the Berlin Print Room in the following century.2 Rather different are Van Heemskerck’s hundreds of detailed preparatory drawings for prints, engraved in copper by professional engravers and etchers. The artist himself attached great importance to these drawings, for he signed nearly all of them and regu- larly added dates. At least 135 of these drawings were kept in an album of pink-purple pages, bound in velvet, which came into the possession of the Danish Royal family before 1690.3 Drawings submitted to engravers were usually returned to the artist with the prints. Some collectors valued them especially because they resembled engravings.4 Nearly all of Van Heemskerck’s preparatory drawing were nicely signed, so it is not surprising that so many of them have survived to this day.

Bodies of Knowledge: The Presentation of Personified Figures in Engraved Allegorical Series Produced in the Netherlands, 1548-1600 Abstract During the second half of the sixteenth century, engraved series of allegorical subjects featuring personified figures flourished for several decades in the Low Countries before falling into disfavor. Designed by the Netherlandsâ?? leading artists and cut by professional engravers, such series were collected primarily by the urban intelligentsia, who appreciated the use of personification for the representation of immaterial concepts and for the transmission of knowledge, both in prints and in public spectacles. The pairing of embodied forms and serial format was particularly well suited to the portrayal of abstract themes with multiple components, such as the Four Elements, Four Seasons, Seven Planets, Five Senses, or Seven Virtues and Seven Vices. While many of the themes had existed prior to their adoption in Netherlandish graphics, their pictorial rendering had rarely been so pervasive or systematic.

  • De Proto-Örientaalse Puzzel: Op Zoek Naar Exotische Invloeden in De Nederlandse Historieschilderkunst Van 1520-50
    De proto-örientaalse puzzel: Op zoek naar exotische invloeden in de Nederlandse historieschilderkunst van 1520-50 Door Jeroen Lesuis Met medewerking van Hilbert Lootsma Schoorl, Haarlem, Amsterdam, Keulen, Obervellach, Bazel, Venetië, Malta, Rhodos, Bethlehem en Jeruzalem, dit zijn plaatsen die schilder Jan van Scorel (1495-62) in zijn eerste vijfentwintig levensjaren aandoet.1 In dit rijtje hoort uiteraard ook thuis Rome, waar Scorel na zijn Jeruzalem- pelgrimsreis twee jaar verblijft. Als een van de eerste schilders uit de Nederlanden en vele na hem. De door hem bewonderde werken van Michelangelo en Rafael zullen een niet te onderschatten impact hebben op Scorels werk. Maar dat is niet waar dit artikel zich op focust. De interesse gaat juist uit naar het gegeven dat Scorel het letterlijk verder zocht dan het in zijn tijd geadoreerde Italië. Daarin was hij niet de enige uitzondering. Zijn collega Pieter Coecke van Aelst (1502-50) bevond zich in 1533 in Istanbul, proberend om tapijtontwerpen te verkopen aan de Ottomaanse sultan Süleyman.2 Jan Cornelisz. Vermeyen (1500-59) bevond zich in 1535 tussen de Tunesische koppensnellers toen hij namens Karel V al schilderend verslag deed van diens strijd tegen de Ottomaanse admiraal Barbossa.3 Het lijkt er op dat de pioniersgeest die rondwaarde in de wereld (Columbus die in 1492 voet zet op Amerikaanse bodem, Cortés die in 1519 in Mexico arriveert) ook vat had gekregen op de zestiende-eeuwse schilders uit de Nederlanden. De vraag is welke invloed dit had op hun werk. De onderzoeksvraag waar dit artikel zich op richt is als volgt: welke proto-oriëntaalse invloeden zijn terug te vinden in de Nederlandse historieschilderkunst aangaande de periode 1520- 50? Hierbij is gekozen voor het begrip ‘proto-oriëntalisme’ in plaats van ‘exotisme’ (al zal dit laatste soms als synoniem functioneren) omdat dit preciezer definieert wat de vreemde beeldelementen vertegenwoordigen.

  • 1 the Te Papa Endymion. a Study on the Subject of Two Sketches on A
    The Te Papa Endymion. A study on the subject of two sketches on a sheet attributed to Maarten van Heemskerck Laura Moretti* *University of St Andrews, School of Art History, 79 North Street, St Andrews KY16 9AL, UK ([email protected]) ABSTRACT: A drawing attributed to the Dutch painter, draughtsman and print designer Maarten van Heemskerck (1498–1574) was acquired in 1973 by Melvin Day, director of the then National Art Gallery of New Zealand. The sheet presents several studies after Antique sculpture, supposedly dating from 1532–6/7, when the artist was in Rome. This article focusses on a sculpture represented at the top of the recto of the sheet, a reclining male nude which is illustrated twice, seen from slightly different angles. In the late 15th and early 16th centuries, the object was located in the courtyard of Casa Maffei in Rome. The sculpture – often referred to as Endymion – later travelled to Venice, Verona and Munich, where it resides today. Executed in Rome, probably in the first century CE, at the end of the sixteenth century it was recognised as a replica of a piece forming part of a fourth-century BCE group representing Niobe and her sons. Three other copies of the same subject are known, currently located in Florence, Dresden and Turin. The article discusses similarities and differences between the replicas, as well as their individual stories, with the aim of understanding how the model was read and interpreted when it was depicted on the Te Papa sheet. KEYWORDS: art collecting, drawing, Italian Renaissance, Maarten van Heemskerck (1498 –1574), Rome, Antique statuary, Niobids, Endymion.

    “And the Rich Man’s Heart Sorrows and Grieves”: Iconography and the Historiography of The Allegory of Hope for Gain by Dirck Coornhert and Maarten van Heemskerck Dean Messinger In 1547, Dirck Volkerszoon Coornhert (1522-1590) was hired by the Haarlem city council to engrave and print posters advertising the city’s lottery, a series of works which would become the first recorded evidence of Coornhert as an artist.1 Given his propensity for modesty and aversion to greed, a lottery advertisement is an ironic glimpse into the early career of Coornhert, who has been studied as a theologian, statesmen, and author, but little as an artist. His opposition to avarice is best reflected in his print series, The Allegory of Hope for Gain, produced in 1550 in collaboration with famed Dutch painter Maarten van Heemskerck (1498-1574).2 In this paper, I will examine the style, meaning, purpose, and audience of The Allegory of Hope for Gain. In doing so, I aim to place The Allegory of Hope for Gain within a larger historiographical framework, which will bring to light its novel iconography and how it serves as an active intervention into numerous theoretical debates surrounding printmaking and its iconography, as well as uncovering the relationship between Coornhert’s prints and his more famous literary works. This research paper was produced in collaboration with the University of Arizona’s Art Museum’s exhibition, Renaissance Prints from the Permanent Collection: A Selection. I chose The Allegory of Hope for Gain to be the focus of my research, as well as to be publicly displayed in the exhibit, because of the series’ striking visual appeal and enigmatic creator that demanded further research.

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.

Each resource in the series focuses on a limited number of paintings and details taken from them. It includes questions about the practice and historical context of the artist, with suggested lines of enquiry and links for further research. The aim is to support teachers in encouraging students to investigate the artist and their practice in-depth. The narrow focus on a selection of portraits by Angelica Kauffmann (1741–1807) enables a concentrated view exploring qualities of her style.
