Lanceloot Blondeel
Lancelot Blondeel, also Lanceloot (1498 – 4 March 1561), was a Flemish painter, architect, surveyor and cartographer.
Blondeel was born in Poperinge, but established himself as an artist at Bruges. He became a member of the painters' guild in 1519.[1] He primarily painted commissioned religious themed works for local churches. In 1550 Blondeel and Jan van Scorel were commissioned to restore Jan van Eyck's celebrated Ghent Altarpiece.[1] He founded in 1549 two triumphal arches, commissioned by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, based on the Roman style. He also designed a canal that linked Bruges to the sea, a project that greatly promoted Bruges trade. It is known that he had a daughter named Anna, who later married his pupil Pieter Pourbus. Blondeel died in Bruges on 4 March 1561.
