Walter Bartel

Walter Bartel (c.1460 - 1512 in Grijzestad) was a Brunanter painter, famous for his portraits. Unlike other Brunanter painters of the Renaissance era, Bartel knew little Italian influences. He is best known for his portraits of King Leuvis Van Damme (1501) and his son Leuvis II (1496). In the short period between the two paintings, Bartel's style changed very much.
