"Head of a Monk" by Hans Memling (1435-1494), Flemish School, Louvre Museum
Memling settled in Bruges, where its wealthy citizens could become patrons for a promising young painter. This was precisely the path that awaited Memling. He would become a fashionable artist among the Italian and Flemish merchants and bankers of Bruges, and would even become the most sought-after portrait painter.
Memling's work represents the pinnacle of 15th-century Flemish art. Whether in polyptychs, religious scenes, or portraits, his skill is remarkable. He particularly excels in portraiture.
