Rogier van der Weyden
1 work in the collection
Rogier van der Weyden (c. 1399–1464), city painter of Brussels, was the most influential Netherlandish painter of the fifteenth century after van Eyck. Where van Eyck observed, Rogier felt: his figures weep, and the Descent from the Cross in the Prado is the picture that taught Northern Europe how to paint grief.
