Question
In 1520, Albrecht Dürer made a pilgrimage to see this artist’s Descent from the Cross for the Premonstratensian Abbey in Middelburg, though the artwork was destroyed fifty years later by a lightning strike. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this artist, who copied a dog from Dürer’s engraving of St. Eustace for a painting in which Mary and the infant Christ rest under towering ruins as a dark-skinned Balthasar presents an elaborate tabernacle on the left.
ANSWER: Jan Gossaert [or Jan Mabuse; or Johannes Malbodius; or Jennyn van Hennegouwe] (That painting is his Adoration of the Kings.)
[10e] Two answers required. Gossaert drew on Dürer’s print Temptation of the Idler for his painting of these two figures, which Dürer himself depicted in an engraving possibly influenced by the Apollo Belvedere. An angel with a sword expels these two weeping figures in a painting by Masaccio.
ANSWER: Adam AND Eve [prompt on partial answers]
[10m] Dürer’s Adam and Eve also inspired a painting of this figure and his wife by Gossaert, one of the first nudes in Flemish art. An elderly Genoese politician is allegorized as this figure in a portrait by Bronzino.
ANSWER: Neptune [accept Portrait of Andrea Doria as Neptune]
