Biography
Biography
The authority associates the name with Early Netherlandish painting. Work by Master of the Legend of Saint Barbara is recorded in the collections of Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum van het Heilig Bloed, Palazzo Colonna, Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and Westphalian State Museum of Art and Cultural History.
He was active in Brussels, but has been considered to possibly be the same person as Aert van den Bossche because he signed into the Bruges Guild of St. Luke as 'Harnoult van den Boske' in 1505. Max J. Friedländer identified several works by this master, not all of which have been reattributed to Aert van den Bossche. • Illustration — Saint Ursula Protecting the Eleven Thousand Virgins With Her Cloak • Illustration — Madonna and Child - Museo Correr
