George Jamesone (or Jameson) (c. 1587 – 1644) was Scotland's first eminent portrait-painter. ==Early years== He was born in Aberdeen, where his father, Andrew Jamesone, was a stonemason. Jamesone attended the grammar school near his home on Schoolhill and is thought to have gone on to further education at Marischal College.〔Bulloch, J. (1885). George Jamesone, The Scottish van Dyck. Edinburgh: David Douglas Ltd, p. 38〕 Legend has it that Jamesone once studied under Rubens in Antwerp with Anthony van Dyck. This is, however, yet to be proven as his name does not appear to be noted on the Guild registers of the town.〔Thomson, D. (1974). The Life and Art of George Jamesone. Oxford: Oxford University Press, p.12〕 Since Rubens was exempt from registering pupils, the absence of Jamesone's name does not mean that the painter definitely did not study there. Jamesone certainly did complete an apprenticeship under the supervision of his uncle, John Anderson, who was a popular decorative painter in Edinburgh at the beginning of the seventeenth century.〔Thomson, D. (1974). ''The Life and Art of George Jamesone''. Oxford: Oxford University Press, p. 13〕 Jamesone finished this training in 1618. He is not recorded as being in Aberdeen again until 1620. If the Scotsman had gone to Antwerp, it would have had to have been between the years of 1618 to 1620. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「George Jamesone」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
