Francken, Ambrosius, I (Flemish painter and draftsman, 1544-1618)
|
Note: Ambrosius, along with his two brothers, was taught to paint by his father, Nicholas Francken. The family moved to Antwerp in the early 1560s and Ambrosius and his brothers were apprenticed to Frans Floris around that time. Ambrosius is recorded as having been in the service of the Bishop of Tournai in 1569, and in Fontainebleau in 1570. In the early 1570s, he was back in Antwerp and became a member of the Guild of St. Luke. The large alterpieces he created seem to have been influential among his contemporaries.
