VOS, Marten de

Flemish painter (b. 1532, Antwerpen, d. 1603, Antwerpen). Flemish painter and draughtsman.

A total of some 1600 prints were produced after designs by de Vos, an output three times that of Maarten van Heemskerck. De Vos's drawings have been praised (see Mielke) for their lively,   Related Paintings of VOS, Marten de :. | Nativity ery | St Luke Painting the Virgin Mary awr | The Family of St Anne aer | The Emperor's Toll set | Scene from the Life of the Virgin ar |
