Présentation de l'éditeur
Compelled to abandon that work ere it was finished, he is now again devoting a portion of his time to the study of the Early Netherlandish Painters, and he hopes to be able to be of some use in this way to students. The present volume includes the biography and an account of the work of Hans Memlinc, who, after the Van Eycks, is the most distinguished master of the Early Netherlandish school. It will, the author hopes, be found an interesting contribution to the present series of monographs; the biography is, he believes, more accurate than in any work yet published. The date of a number of paintings has been established, and the persons for whom they were executed identified; others, attributed to Memlinc on what appear to be insufficient grounds, have been rejected and the reasons for so doing given. One document only, discovered at Saint Omer sby Father H. Dussart, has been added to those previously unearthed by the writer in the archives of Bruges, and this establishes beyond-doubt the exact date of Memlinc sdeath and the place of his burial, which he had already stated to be probable. It also tends to favour one rather than the other of the two possible localities whence the name of Memlinc, by which the master is now known, was derived. The identity of the man whose portrait is in the Van Ertborn collection at Antwerp has also been discovered by Mr. A. J. Wauters.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Early Netherlandish Paintings were like explorers voyaging on a wild and unknown ocean without a chart; some of them making careful observations, and jotting down on their maps any land of the existence and extent of which they had acquired certain proof, and noting its characteristic features; others, however, in their eagerness to make discoveries quickly, and to acquire renown, mistaking sandbanks and rocks seen through the mists for hitherto undiscovered countries, giving them names, dilating ip elegant language on their beauties, and for a time obtaining the reputation of having added to the worlds knowledge. So has it been with the history of the Early Netherlandish School of Painting. Dates in the biographies of a certain number of painters have been fixed, details of their lives ascertained, and the authorship of a score or two of paintings established beyond doubt by the patient researches of De Laborde, Pinchart, Van Even, and A. Wauters; whilst others, such as De Busscher, Michiels, A. J. Wauters, E. Baes, and C.
