Vincent Sellaer
Vincent Sellaer (1490–1564), was a Flemish Renaissance painter known for his mythological and religious subjects. His works stand out through their monumentality of form and their mixing of Italian and northern styles.Karl T. Johns. "Sellaer, Vincent." Grove Art Online. Oxford Art Online.
