EDITORS COMMENTS
Jan Cleemenssoen, also known as the Master of the Well of Life, was an accomplished painter active in the Northern Netherlands during the early 16th century. This epitaph, created in his honor in 1511, is now housed in the National Gallery in Prague, Czech Republic. The intricately carved and painted stonework depicts the artist in prayer, surrounded by angels and various Christian symbols. At the center of the composition, a well, or font, represents the "Well of Life," a common motif in European art of the time. The well is topped with a crucifixion scene, symbolizing the source of eternal life through faith in Christ. The Master of the Well of Life was known for his intricate detail and masterful use of color. This epitaph is a testament to his artistic skill and the reverence in which he was held by his community. The angels, with their serene expressions and delicate wings, seem to offer a blessing to the deceased artist. The bishop figure, perhaps representing the patron or commissioner of the work, looks on approvingly. This epitaph is a significant example of the Renaissance art produced in the Northern Netherlands during this period. It reflects the religious and artistic influences of the time, as well as the patronage and support of the local community. The National Gallery in Prague is fortunate to have this important work in its collection, providing a window into the artistic and cultural history of Europe during the 16th century.
