In the maelstrom of time, around the middle of the 15th century, an artistic genius unfolded in Flanders who left a lasting mark on the landscape of Old Netherlandish painting. His name: Hugo van der Goes. He was probably born between 1435 and 1440, probably in the culturally vibrant city of Ghent. His life's journey took him as far as Oudergem, near Brussels, where he breathed his last in 1482. Among his notable works we find "The Death of Mary," a beguiling masterpiece painted around 1480 and now on display at the Groeninge Museum in Bruges.
In May 1467, according to the certain documentation of his existence, van der Goes achieved the title of master in the Ghent painters' guild Lucas, his witness and guarantor being none other than the famous artist Joos van Wassenhove, better known as Justus van Gent. A year later, van der Goes, along with other contemporary greats such as Jacques Daret, moved to Bruges. There he contributed with his unique talent to the decoration of the city for the wedding celebrations of Charles the Bold and Margaret of York. The art prints of these works are still evidence of the solemn splendor of this era.
Van der Goes' artistic influence reached far and wide, earning him the fame his extraordinary works deserved. Between 1474 and 1476, he served as dean of the painters' guild and was held in high esteem by both the nobility and the bourgeoisie. His decision to join the Roode Klooster near Brussels changed the course of his life, but his art remained unaffected. Here, too, he attracted high-ranking visitors, including the Archduke and future Emperor Maximilian. But in 1481, a dramatic turn of events occurred: On his way back from Cologne, van der Goes suffered a seizure accompanied by suicidal intentions. His life ended the following year, leaving an incomparable legacy in the world of art.
