Nella vita di Dirck Bouts
Tutta la vitac. 1415
Born
c. 1440
Possible apprenticeship with Rogier van der Weyden
Rogier van der Weyden’s influence is especially marked in Bouts’s work, and some scholars suggest that around 1440 he was that master’s pupil. Jan van Eyck was another formative influence.
1448
Marries Katharina van der Brugghen
Bouts marries Katharina van der Brugghen, daughter of a wealthy Leuven patrician (by other accounts the wedding was about 1447); he was married twice in all. Of his four children, two daughters went to convents, while his sons Dieric the Younger and Albert became painters and carried on his workshop.
1457
Works in Leuven from 1457
A native of Haarlem according to Karel van Mander, Bouts lives and works in Leuven from 1457 (possibly earlier) and stays there until his death.
1468
Becomes city painter of Leuven
In 1468 Bouts attains the rank of city painter of Leuven and then receives a commission for two works for the Town Hall. Documents show him to have been a wealthy citizen who owned a large stone house with a garden and vineyard on Minderbroedersstraat.
