Everything about Lucas Achtschellinck totally explained
Lucas Achtschellinck (baptized
16 January 1626, -
12 May 1699 (buried)), was a
Belgian landscape painter.
He was born in
Brussels and entered the Brussels
painters guild on
26 October 1639 as a scholar of
Pieter van der Borcht. He seems to have travelled in the following years as he gained his admittance as master only in
1657. On
13 March 1674 he married with
Anna Parys.
Achtschellick is a typical follower of
Rubens' style of painting landscapes. He was mainly influenced by
Jacques d'Arthois. He painted large wooded sceneries for churches and cloisters, which were then garnished by others with characters and events from the
Holy Bible. Achtschellinck used to paint the landscapes in many of the important works of the Flemish painter
Gaspar de Crayer (1582-1669).
The leading Brussels landscape artists were, besides Lucas Achtschellinck :
Lodewijk de Vadder (1605-1655) and Jacques d'Arthois (1603-1686). They are usually referred to collectively as "The
Soignies Forest Painters".
