Jacques Bellange

Printmakers, Calligraphers and Graphic Artists

Jacques Bellange was an artist and printmaker from the Duchy of Lorraine who lived from about 1575 to 1616. His etchings and some drawings are his only securely identified works today, and none of his paintings are known to have survived. The prints are among the most striking Northern Mannerist old master prints, mostly on Catholic religious subjects and in a highly individual style. He worked for fourteen years in the capital, Nancy, as court painter to two Dukes of Lorraine, and almost all his prints were produced in the three or four years before his death at about the age of forty.
