Biography:
Jan Sanders was born in Hemessen but settled in Antwerp in 1524 after studying in Italy. After Massys’s death in 1530, his career heightened but eventually he was overshadowed when Bruegel arrived on the scene in the 1550’s. Hemessen specialized in scenes of human character flaws such as vanity and greed. His pictures are also normally religious and his style helped found the Flemish traditions of genre painting. Hemessen was also a portrait painter, which influenced his daughter, Catharina van Hemessen to become a portraitist as well.
