Marinus van Reymerswaele
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marinus Claeszoon van Reymerswaele (Reimerswaal, The Netherlands, ca. 1490—Goes ca. 1546) was a Dutch painter. He worked in Zeeland from 1533-1545. Hence he is also named Marinus de Seeu (from Zeeland). He studied at the University of Louvain (1504) and was trained as painter in Antwerp (1509).
His name is known from a small number of signed panels. Another number of paintings is attributed to Marinus on stylistic grounds. His oeuvre consists of a relatively small numbers of themes only, mostly adapted from Quentin Massys and Albrecht Dürer:
- The moneychanger and his wife
- Two tax collectors
- The lawyer’s office
- Saint Jerome in his study
- The calling of Matthew
A large group of tax collectors are wrongly attributed to Marinus. His themes were popular in the sixteenth century and his paintings copied many times.
