Arnout De Muyser
Arnout de Muyser was a painter active in the second half of the sixteenth century. He is an elusive character, who left several notable paintings of market scenes, but little is known about the artist himself. His work is believed to have influenced a later generation of German painters. Work Little is known about Arnout apart from the two market scenes he painted, namely ''Woman selling fruit and vegetables'' and ''Vegetable and Flower Market'', formerly in the collections of the Farnese family of Parma and now kept at the Museum of Capodimonte in Naples. Licia Ragghianti Collobi notes the influences of Joachim Beuckelaer for still lifes, Hans Vredeman de Vries for architectural decoration and Maerten de Vos for figures in these two market scenes, which suggest he was trained in Antwerp around 1560-1570. Another work, ''A Fish Seller's Stall'' has also been attributed to de Muyser. Elizabeth Honig has compared de Muyser's work with later paintings executed in Frankfurt and ...

Painting
Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (called the "matrix" or "support"). The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used. In art, the term ''painting ''describes both the act and the result of the action (the final work is called "a painting"). The support for paintings includes such surfaces as walls, paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer, pottery, leaf, copper and concrete, and the painting may incorporate multiple other materials, including sand, clay, paper, plaster, gold leaf, and even whole objects. Painting is an important form in the visual arts, bringing in elements such as drawing, composition, gesture (as in gestural painting), narration (as in narrative art), and abstraction (as in abstract art). Paintings can be naturalistic and representational (as in still life and landscape painting), photographic, abstract, nar ...
