Adriaen Isenbrandt

Adriaen Isenbrandt, also spelled Adriaen Ysenbrandt (between 1480 and 1490 to July 1551), was a painter active in Bruges during the final years of Early Netherlandish painting and among the first painters of the Northern Renaissance in the Low Countries. Documentary evidence suggests he was a significant and successful artist of his period, even though no specific surviving works are clearly documented as his; art historians have conjectured that he ran a large workshop specializing in religious subjects and devotional paintings in a conservative style, working on even as Antwerp's booming economy made it the new center of painting in the Low Countries while Bruges retained considerable prestige. Some scholars, including Georges Hulin de Loo, have proposed identifying him with the anonymous Master of the Seven Sorrows of the Virgin, though others doubt any works can be reliably attributed to him.
