JANSSENS, Abraham
Flemish painter (b. 1575, Antwerpen, d. 1632, Antwerpen).
Flemish painter. He painted historical, religious and mythological subjects, often on a large scale, derived principally from antique sculpture and the art of Michelangelo and Raphael and, to a lesser degree, from certain contemporaries, including the Dutch late Mannerists and the Bolognese school. He was highly esteemed in Antwerp but suffered, then and subsequently, from the inevitable comparison with his contemporary and formidable rival Rubens Related Paintings of JANSSENS, Abraham :. | Westminster Abbey with a Procession of the Knights of Bath | Cascade de la Folie Chamonix (mk22) | The Last Supper by Luca Giordano | Pang Schwarz road map | The anemic lady | Related Artists: einar hein(Danish, 1875-1931 Paul von Franken(1818- 1884 ) - Painter

Apprenticed to an engraver as a young man, Blake learned skills that allowed him to put his poems and drawings together on etchings, and he began to publish his own work. Throughout his life he survived on small commissions, never gaining much attention from the London art world. His paintings were rejected by the public
