Engraving from 1572, attributed to Johannes (Jan) Wierix

Rogier van der Weyden , formerly Rogier de le Pasture (* 1399 / 1400 in Tournai , at that time the Kingdom of France belonging city in Flanders ; † 18th June 1464 in Brussels , at that time capital of the Duchy of Burgundy ), was a Flemish painter and is considered one the most important representative of the old Dutch painting .

Life

Origin and youth

Rogier van der Weyden was the son of the Tournais cutler Henry de le Pasture and his wife Agnès de Watrelos. His childhood and youth as well as his early artistic training, which as a rule began at the age of 12 to 14 with an apprenticeship of at least four years, and his first years as a journeyman are in the dark.

Marriage and offspring

In 1426 at the latest he married Elisabeth (Lysebette) Goffaert from Brussels, the daughter of the shoemaker Jan Goffaert and his wife Cathelyne van Stockem. He had four children with her. The eldest son Corneille (1426 / 1427–1473) entered the Carthusian monastery of Hérinnez-Enghien ( Herne ) after studying at the University of Leuven in 1438 or 1439 . The daughter Marguerite, who was probably born in 1432, died in 1473. The two younger sons became artists. Pierre (Pieter) van der Weyden (1437 [?] - around 1515) became a painter and took over his father's workshop in Brussels after his father's death. Jean (Jan) van der Weyden (1438–1468) became a goldsmith in Brussels. The painter Goossen van der Weyden was Pierre van der Weyden’s son and thus Rogier van der Weyden’s grandson.

Robert Campins employee

Entry of "Rogelet de le Pasture" in the Tournai guild register, copy around 1482

On March 5, 1427, Rogier van der Weyden began his apresure (German: "teaching") as "Rogelet de le Pasture" with the master Robert Campin . Why he was considered an apprentice painter, around 27 years old , can only be guessed at. For example, formal legal issues could have played a role. The more recent research assumes that Rogier as well as the other by name known "apprentices" Jacques Daret (called "Jacquelotte Daret"), Haquin de Blandin and Willemet worked as fully trained journeyman in Robert Campins service as early as 1427 . It is conceivable that Rogier spent his actual apprenticeship at Campin and received his basic training and thus got to know the new possibilities of painting, i.e. worked in Campin's workshop before 1427. Early connections between Rogier and Jan van Eyck or his brother Hubert, who died in 1426, are also being considered .

Acquitted master in Tournai

With effect from August 1, 1432, "maistre Rogier de le Pasture" became an acquitted master in the Tournais painters' guild. After Robert Campin's workshop was closed, Rogier founded his own. Artistically demanding orders are documented by payment receipts from 1432/1433.

In 1435 Rogier already had enough wealth to buy a life annuity from the city of Tournai .

City painter in Brussels

In October 1435, Rogier was resident in Brussels with his family. In a file dated May 2, 1436 it was recorded that he had settled down as a painter and took over the office of Brussels city painter. This date is also documented that Rogier now had the surname “van der Weyden”, which was transferred into Flemish-Dutch, instead of the French surname “de la Pasture”.

In 1436 and 1437, as in 1441 and 1459, he was able to acquire annuities for himself, his wife and his two elders.

Tapestry: free copy of Rogier's pictures of justice
Presumed self-portrait of Rogier on the tapestry based on Rogier's pictures of justice

In 1439 the first two of four much admired and as an attraction - for example by Albrecht Dürer in 1520 - pictures of justice for the Brussels City Hall were ready. The second of these was the only surviving picture with Rogier's signature , with which he described himself as a citizen : "Rogerius [S] weidenus civis pixit 1439". These pictures were destroyed in 1695 and are only preserved as copies on a tapestry knitted around 1460/1470. Nikolaus von Kues explained in De visione Dei that God as the all-seeing can be grasped like a parable with a portrait whose face, through the finest art of painting, gives the impression that it is looking at everything around. As an example, he cited, among other things, the “by the outstanding painter Roger in Brussels on a very valuable painting in the town hall” ( [in] Bruxelli's Rogeri maximi pictoris in pretiosissima tabula, quae in praetorio habetur [...] ).

Rogier and the employees in his workshop didn't just make panel pictures . Although the most important documents that could say something about it, the municipal accounts of Brussels from Rogier's time as town painter, are no longer available, the variety of the usual tasks can be described. Rogier's painting business was responsible for all work that involved “painting in color”. This could include, for example, the colored version of sculptures and reliefs, the painting of furniture and armor, coats of arms, pennants and banners, the making of decorations for religious and secular exhibitions and festivals, as well as the staging of homage when the duke entered.

As a town painter, Rogier was not exclusively bound to the city of Brussels as a client, but was also able, for example, to carry out commissions from the rich bourgeoisie and the Burgundian court. In 1444 Rogier was so wealthy that he was able to buy a house in a manorial location in Brussels. His high social standing is reflected in his membership in the Brotherhood of the Holy Cross, which belongs to the Church of Saint-Jaques-du-Coudenberg, to which the Burgundian duke and many members of the court belonged.

Rome trip and fame in Italy

His reputation as a painter is also shown by numerous commissions that he received from foreign courts. In 1449 Leonello d'Este , Duke of Ferrara, acquired several paintings by Rogier, such as a triptych with the Descent from the Cross . In a collection of biographies edited in 1459, Bartolomeo Facio reported that Rogier ("Rogerius Gallicus") made a pilgrimage to Rome in the jubilee year of 1450 . Facio claims to have seen an erotic painting in Genoa and three canvas paintings with depictions of the Passion by Rogier at court in Naples .

The humanist Cyriacus of Ancona ranked Rogier right behind Jan van Eyck .

In 1460, the Duchess Bianca Maria Sforza of Milan sent the painter Zanetto Bugatto to a two-year training course with Rogier van der Weyden in Brussels.

That Rogier visited other Italian cities besides Rome is concluded from the fact that impressions of the painting there made themselves felt in his work. For example, he took over from Fra Angelico a type of the burial of Christ , hitherto unknown in the north , in which the dead Christ is presented by Nicodemus in the form of a cross. Fra Angelico's influence is also seen in Rogier's remaining Passion Diptych in the Galleria degli Uffizi with the Crucified, Mary and John from around 1460. The radical reduction of the events and the furnishing of the fictitious room refers to Fra Angelico's mockery of Christ from the fresco cycle created around 1445/1450 in the monastery of San Marco in Florence.

Support for religious institutions

Especially in the last years of his life, Rogier supported religious institutions such as the poor of Sainte-Gudule , the Charterhouse of Scheut near Brussels and that of Hérinnes-lez-Enghien, where his son Corneille lived.

A Latin poem of praise by the humanist Domenicus Lampsonius under the copper engraving portrait of Rogier van der Weyden from 1572 deals with Rogier's charity. It praises Rogier's painting - the images of justice are mentioned in Brussels, but sees their fame as transitory, but not the fame of Rogier's last will, according to which the proceeds from his painting should be an eternal cure for the hunger of the poor. These monuments would shine forever in the sky.

Death in Brussels

Rogier van der Weyden died on June 18, 1464 in Brussels. He was buried in the Brussels Cathedral of St. Gudule . His workshop was continued by his son Pierre van der Weyden. On October 19, 1464, a commemorative mass was held in the chapel of the Tournais Guild of St. Luke Rogier.

plant

With the works of Jan van Eyck , Robert Campin and his colleague Rogier van der Weyden, a new era of painting begins, which is characterized by realistic detailed descriptions and a further development of oil painting. In addition to works of a religious nature, the works of these ancient Dutch painters and their workshops also include some of the earliest autonomous portraits in European painting.

Differentiation of the works of Rogier van der Weyden from the works of Robert Campins workshop

Portrait of a woman, mostly assigned to Robert Campin

Only one signed work by Rogier has survived, and only one copy of this as a tapestry ( Historisches Museum Bern ): the justice images of the Brussels City Hall, one of which he signed Rogerius [S] weidanus civis pinxit in 1439 (“Roger von Weyden, Citizen, painted it in 1439 ”). Other works are identified by old tradition as Rogier's works.

The distinction between Rogier's early work and the works of the so-called Master of Flémalle , who may be identical to Robert Campin , to whose workshop belongs to or represents several Campin employees, is still controversial today. The great Descent from the Cross in the Prado was awarded to Robert Campin on the one hand and Rogier van der Weyden on the other. In the case of the portrait of the Feisten Mann , which was previously considered to be Robert Campin's work, it is considered whether - like other Campin portraits - it might not come from Rogier van der Weyden as an employee in Campin's workshop.

Attempts to divorce hands have come to different results so far. Newer technical processes such as infrared macro photography, infrared reflectography and X radiography as well as dendrochronological examinations can support the results of the comparative connoisseur and in some cases confirm or reject them. The signatures made visible, the choice of pigments and binders, as well as the type of primer and the layered paint application play an important role.

Drawings attributed to Rogier van der Weyden

Pen drawing: draft or redraw
Silver pen drawing: tracing

The pen and silver pen drawings that have survived and are attributed to Rogier could have two reasons. They were drafts or executed templates, called patrons in the Netherlands, for signing paintings or they were drawn from finished paintings. In any case, they could serve as recyclable material for Rogier himself or the employees of his workshops.

In 1436, for example, “maistre Rogier le pointre” was commissioned by the Tournais city authorities to make a drawing based on a fresco with the kings of France and Aragon, for which Robert Campin had been paid. This should make it possible to restore the wall paintings, which had to be partially destroyed due to renovations. However, it is disputed whether this "maistre Rogier pointre", who also did smaller jobs in Tournai in 1436 and 1437 - that is, in Rogier van der Weyden's time in Brussels - with Rogier van der, such as the gilding of numbers on an epitaph and the setting of a coat of arms Weyden is identical. Possibly it was the Tournaise master Rogier Wonebac.

Works, attributed to Rogier van der Weyden, by genre, with current locations (selection)

Crucifixion triptych ; Vienna, Art History Museum
Polyptych
Triptych as an altarpiece
Devotional triptych
Diptych with a portrait of the client

The three diptychs with the client on the right and the Madonna and Child on the left belong to a genre of devotional diptychs developed by Rogier and his workshop. All three were separated in the course of their history and the components ended up in different locations. Connoisseurship and technical investigations were able to show how they belong together.

Rogier van der Weyden's workshops in Tournai and Brussels were organized according to guilds . Rogier as master led them and employed journeymen and apprentices, the number of which was limited depending on the local statutes of the guilds. Only Rogier as a master was competent.

In addition to the master Rogier, his apprentices and journeymen also worked on a panel painting. They ranged from small-scale preparatory work such as priming the panels supplied by a carpenter to artistic execution of the image surface and its protective circuit varnish . Some of the blackboard paintings were designed and executed by employees themselves. Like Rogier, they used the templates that belonged to the workshop's fund. It can be assumed that even the works personally ascribed to Rogier did not come about without the cooperation of members of his workshop. The proportion of their cooperation is disputed.

Even pictures for which Rogier only made the preliminary drawings , or pictures that he had not designed himself or on which he had not participated at all, left his workshop under his name.

Rogier's last commissions, which he left unfinished, were possibly completed by his colleague whose name was unknown and who had the emergency name Meister von Ambierle . It is considered whether this stranger is perhaps Rogier's son Pierre (Pieter) van der Weyden.

More than Jan van Eyck and Robert Campin, Rogier van der Weyden left his mark on painting across Europe from around 1450 to the beginning of the 16th century. The painters next to and after him owe essentials to his art. This applies in particular to well-known painters such as his son Pierre van der Weyden (perhaps identical with the master of the Catherine legend ), Dierick Bouts , Vrancke van der Stockt and Hans Memling , who are considered to be Rogier's pupils, but also to many painters unknown by name such as the master of the Barbarian legend , the master of Sainte Gudule and the master of the Ursula legend . They adopted and varied Rogier's compositions and individual figures, buildings and background landscapes. Max J. Friedländer even said that Rogier's work was “like a quarry” for these painters. Echoes of the later Flemish grandmasters such as Hugo van der Goes , Quentin Massys and Gerard David , as well as Rogier's grandson Goosen van der Weyden. Outside the Netherlands, the influence extends to Bartolomé Bermejo and Fernando Gallego in Spain , Giovanni Bellini in Italy and the German painters Martin Schongauer and Albrecht Dürer.
