For the catalogue of the 1965 monographic exhibition in Rotterdam
and Bruges on Jan Gossart (ca. 1472-1532) a compilation was made of
68 documentary references pertaining to the artist's life and
works. Now, forty-five years later, there has been a reassessment
of Gossart and his oeuvre which has resulted in a new catalogue
raisonne, Man, Myth, and Sensual Pleasures: Jan Gossart's
Renaissance. The present text, Jan Gossart: The Documentary
Evidence accompanies this volume. This tome covers more than 130
documents, including inventories, accounts, biographies,
descriptions and other records about Gossart's life and works, up
until the mid-18th century. These mainly archival records have been
re-examined and transcribed anew, and subsequently discovered
documents have been added. Each transcription is accompanied by a
short description and comment as well as published references. The
book includes photographs of original records. Additionally, two of
Gossart's works for which most of our knowledge is based on
documentary evidence are discussed: the so-called Salamanca
Triptych and the famous, now lost, Middelburg Altarpiece.
