Albert Cornelis
The Glorification of the Virgin
Albert Cornelis (c.1475–September 4, 1532) was a 16th-century Flemish Renaissance painter.[1]
Not much is known about Cornelis' life except through his works. He primarily painted religious-themed paintings for church commissions. One work executed by Cornelis The Glorification of the Virgin is part of the Brighton Museum & Art Gallery collection.[2] An altarpiece depicting a similar subject, Coronation of the Virgin, in the Church of St. Jacques, Bruges has also been attributed to him.[2] He died on September 4, 1532 in Bruges.[1]
