Gerard David (born about 1455, died 1523)
With its prime location not far from the western coast of what is today Belgium and its easy access to the Atlantic Ocean through the Zwin River, fifteenth-century Bruges became the chief economic hub of western Europe and an important international center with especially strong trade links to Italy, Spain, England, and the German territories. In addition, the Prinsenhof there was the favored residence of the dukes of Burgundy, whose regular visits with full entourage lent a festive atmosphere to the city. It is not surprising that the concentration of wealth, power, and prestige in Bruges attracted an unbroken succession of highly skilled immigrant painters who recognized the advantage of settling there to practice their craft. Jan van Eyck came from Maaseik in the Mosan region; Petrus Christus from Baerle, near the present Dutch-Belgian border; Hans Memling from the German town of Seligenstadt; and Gerard David from Oudewater, in the northern Netherlands, near Gouda.
