Cornelis van der Geest
Cornelis van der Geest (1577 – 10 March 1638) was a spice merchant from Antwerp, who used his wealth to support the Antwerp artists and to establish his art collection. He was also the dean of the haberdashers guild.〔 He has been portraited repeatedly by Anthony van Dyck, while Willem van Haecht painted his "constcammer", a view of the visit of Albert VII, Archduke of Austria and Isabella Clara Eugenia to his art collection. He owned two paintings by Quentin Matsys, one of which, a ''Madonna'', can be seen in the Van Haecht painting. Other works included in that view are ''Women at her toilet'' by Jan van Eyck, a still life by Frans Snyders, ''Ceres Mocked'' by Adam Elsheimer, ''Danaë'' by Van Haecht, ''Battle of the Amazons'' and a portrait by Peter Paul Rubens, ''Peasant Company with Woman making Pancakes'' by Pieter Aertsen, ''Apelles'' by Jan Wierix and a hunting scene by Jan Wildens. The painting also shows some of Van der Geest's sculptures, with copies of the ''Venus de' Medici'', the ''Farnese Hercules'', and the ''Apollo Belvedere''. Van Haecht, who was the curator of the collection, painted two other views of the collection as well.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rubenshuis.be/eCache/MCN/30/18/074.cmVjPTgwMjI5NTA.html )〕
Van der Geest also functioned as a maecenas. He arranged for Rubens to get the order for a triptych for the Saint Walpurga church in Antwerp, which resulted in the ''Elevation of the Cross'', now in the Cathedral of Antwerp. Similarly, the order for the 1630-1632 ''Triptych of Saint Ildephonsus'', intended for the Saint James church, but now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, was given to Rubens through the influence of Van der Geest.
