Pieter van Coninxloo (c. 1460–1513) was an Early Netherlandish painter first documented as active in Brussels from 1479. Little is known of his life apart from his appearance in records of 1479, 1503 and 1513, in the archives of Margaret of Austria when he is mentioned in relation to the commission of portraits.〔"Van Coninxloo". Grove Art, Oxford University Press.〕 He came from a family of artists; at least six generations were painters. His brother was Jan van Coninxloo. Van Coninxloo specialised in portraiture, and worked at different times for the Burgundian court. He is thought to have painted a c 1505 portrait, now in the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle, of Margaret of Austria commissioned by Philip the Good with the intention of selling it to Henry VII of England.〔Eichberger, Dagmar; Beaven, Lisa. "Family Members and Political Allies: the Portrait Collection of Margaret of Austria". ''The Art Bulletin'' 77.2, 1995〕 He was employed in 1513 to paint portraits of the future Charles V and his sisters.〔Campbell, 110〕 Max Friedländer believes he may have been one of the most significant of the Brussels school painters before Bernard van Orley.〔Valentiner, Wilhelm Reinhold (ed). ''Art in America'', Westport, Conn: F.F. Sherman, 1939. 11〕 However only a handful of his works have survived, and even these are tentatively attributed. He is sometimes associated with the unidentified artist known as the Master of the Legend of the Magdalen (''Meister der Magdalenenlegende''), thought to have been a court painter to Margaret of Austria, and who shares similarities of style, time and location. A number of art historians, including Max Friedländer, who first identified the Master of the Legend of the Magdalen, speculated that they may have been the same person.〔Friedländer, Max J. ''Early Netherlandish Painting: Volume 13: Antonis MOR and His Contemporaries''. Kluwer Academic Publishers, ed 1975. 48. ISBN 90-286-0595-9〕 He may also have been a member of the master's workshop.〔Campbell, 114〕 ==Gallery== :File:Pieter van Coninxloo - Philip the Handsome NG 2613.1.jpg|Philip the Handsome (left panel of diptych), (National Gallery ). :File:Pieter van Coninxloo - Margaret of Austria NG 2613.2.jpg|Margaret of Austria (right panel of diptych), (National Gallery ) 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「Pieter van Coninxloo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
