Biography:
Bernaert van Orley was a Netherlandish painter who specialized in religious subjects and portraits. He was a famous painter in Brussels, working as the court painter for Margaret of Austria, regent of the Netherlands in 1518. He was also employed by her successor, Mary of Hungary beginning in 1532. Italian painters influenced Orley’s work, although there is no evidence to suggest that he spent any time in Italy. It is probable that he studied the works of the Italian artists through engravings and also Raphael’s tapestry designs, which were in Brussels from 1516 to 1519. Nicknamed The Netherlandish Raphael, his greatest achievement is considered to be his Job altarpiece.
