Jan Miel〔Name variations: 'Jan Miele', 'Jan Bicke', 'Jan Bike', 'Cavaliere Giovanni Miele', 'Cavaliere Giovanni Milo', 'Cavaliere Giovanni della Vita', 'Petit Jean'; nicknames: 'Bieco' en 'Honingh-bie'〕 (1599 in Beveren-Waas – 1663 in Turin) was a Flemish painter and engraver who was active in Italy where he initially formed part of the circle of genre painters influenced by Pieter van Laer who are referred to as 'Bamboccianti'. He later developed away from the Bamboccianti style and painted history subjects. ==Life== He was probably born in Beveren-Waas, but Antwerp and 's-Hertogenbosch have also been suggested as possible birthplaces. There is no information on his training but it is assumed that it took place in Antwerp.〔(Jan Miel ) at the Netherlands Institute for Art History 〕 The seventeenth century Italian biographer Giovanni Battista Passeri refers to a training by Anthony van Dyck in Flanders but there is no independent evidence for this statement.〔(Giovanni Miele ) in: Giovanni Battista Passeri, '' Vite the pittori, scultori ed architetti che anno lavorato '' in Roma, Roma, 1772, page 224〕 HIs stay in Rome in the period from 1636 to 1658 is documented, but it is possible that he was already there from 1633.〔(Jan Miel ) on Hadrian〕 In Rome he became a member of the Bentvueghels, an association of mainly Dutch and Flemish artists working in Rome. It was customary for the Bentvueghels to adopt an appealing nickname, the so-called 'bent name'. For Miel two different bent names are documented: ''Bieco'' (which means squint in Italian) and ''Honingh-Bie'' (which means honey bee and is derived from the surname 'Miele' by which he was known in Italy and which means 'honey' in Italian).〔 In Rome he also joined the circle of genre painters whose work was influenced by the Dutch painter Pieter van Laer and were referred to as 'Bamboccianti'. The Bamboccianti were mainly Dutch and Flemish artists working in Rome who mostly produced small cabinet paintings or prints of the everyday life of the lower classes in Rome and the surrounding countryside. Jan Miel was a vital force in the development of this new tradition in Rome.〔 Miel became in 1648 the first northern artist who was admitted to the Accademia di San Luca, a prestigious association of leading artists in Rome. A stay of Miel in Northern Italy of around 1654 is documented. From 1658 until his death he resided in Turin, where he was appointed court painter of Charles Emanuel II, the Duke of Savoy.〔(Ludovica Trezzani. "Miel, Jan." ) Grove Art Online. Oxford Art Online.
