List of Famous people named Master

The Master of 1518 is a Flemish painter belonging to the stylistic school of Antwerp Mannerism. A group of unsigned paintings is attributed to this artist on stylistic grounds, and his name is derived from the date inscribed on the painted wings of a carved wooden altarpiece of the Life of the Virgin in St. Mary's Church in Lübeck Germany. Although this artist’s identity is not known with certainty, some scholars believe that the Master of 1518 was either Jan Mertens the Younger or Jan van Dornicke, or that all three were the same person. His paintings are primarily crowded depictions of religious scenes combining Gothic and Renaissance styles. He frequently incorporated elaborate clothing and architectural ruins.

The Master of Jean Rolin II, also known as Rolin Master and Missel de Jean Rolin, was an anonymous artist who worked in Paris as a book illuminator for wealthy people including members of the court of Charles VII.

His work is part of the increase in specialized book production seen in Paris as a response to the growing commissions from lay people and the University of Paris. From 1445 to 1465 he worked in Paris together with other anonymous artists on books that included the Book of Hours of Simon de Varie. Spencer published an account of his style in 1963.

The Master of Affligem or Master of the Joseph Sequence was an accomplished painter of the South Netherlandish school, apparently working in Brussels, whose name is not known, but whose hand can be detected in a number of surviving paintings on panel.

Subsequently Friedländer attributed to the same workshop eight further panels with scenes from two other sequences, the Life of Christ and the Life of the Virgin These came from the abbey of Affligem in Brabant, providing the alternate name for the artist.
