PITER AERTSEN
Aertsen, Pieter (b. 1508-09, Amsterdam, d. 1575, Amsterdam).
Netherlandish painter, active in his native Amsterdam and in Antwerp. A
pioneer of still life and genre painting, he is best known for scenes that
at first glance look like pure examples of these types, but which in fact
have a religious scene incorporated in them (Butcher's Stall with the Flight
into Egypt, University of Uppsala, 1551). His depictions of food, flowers,
and everyday objects make him important in the development of still-life
painting. Aertsen was the head of a long dynasty of painters, of whom the
most talented was his nephew and pupil Joachim Bueckelaer.
Nicknamed Lange Pier (Peter the Long), born in Amsterdam, he became a
citizen of Antwerp in 1542 where he resided until around 1556. Hosted
initially by Jan Mandyn, a gifted follower of Hieronimus Bosch
</wm/paint/auth/bosch/>, Pieter Aertsen links the Dutch and the Flemish
schools. His sons, Pieter Pietersz and Aert Pieterz, also became painters.
Aertsen also trained his nephew Joachim Beuckelaer.
During his first years in Antwerp he was mainly commissioned to make
altarpieces </wm/paint/glo/altarpiece/> for Dutch churches. Before long he
also started to paint scenes from peasant life and he gained a reputation
for his paintings of market scenes and "kitchen" tableaux, which contained
an abundance of fruit, fish, poultry, cheese, bread and much more.
Renowned today as the painter of "kitchens" (Christ with Maria and
Martha), featuring an opulent and familiar realism, he is in fact a varied
and ambitious painter, tackling both religious compositions, genre scenes
and portrait: his career can be traced between 1543 and 1571 with a series
of signed and dated artworks. Today he is considered as important as Bruegel
</wm/paint/auth/bruegel/> among 16th century painting: a powerful and
monumental artist, using splendid and frank tones, announcing the Flemish
still-life developments with such realism and surcharge of details.
His compositions packed at the front with vegetables reflect a
mannerist pathos specific to the 16th century; however if religious
figuration is often relegated in the background in a subordinated position
(a scheme that will later have much success, among his younger cousin and
pupil Beuckelaer for instance, who took over this style of painting and
developed it further), the religious painter should not be ignored, with
such massive formats and powerful ambitions. He was tormented by iconoclasts
and practiced a heroic and dignified style, close to and competing with
Floris.
