Van Dyck, Anthony

Van Dyck, Anthony
(3/22/1599 Antwerp- 12/9/1641 London) (Netherlands / England)
   Painter. Most important of Ruben's pupils. He became a major figure in the Baroque period in his own right, famous for his portraits. Among his mythological paintings are many which focus on famous lovers of Antiquity [i.e. Jupiter and An-tiope, Amor and Psyche), displaying a love of depicting sensuous flesh.
