Quentin Massys (1464-1530) A Dutch master who was born into a family of blacksmiths and watchmakers. According to the wishes of his father, he also became a blacksmith. It is said, however, that he fell in love with the daughter of a painter from Antwerp and feared that his chosen love would not want a simple blacksmith. On the other hand, it is also said that he was too weak for the hard work of a blacksmith. Before he left for his love, he allegedly forged a well in front of the Antwerp cathedral. He painted mostly paintings with religious themes - Jesus Chasing the Merchants from the Temple. His work, such as the painting Ill-Matched Marriage s, is so heavily melancholy and grotesquely bizarre that it was often misunderstood. He was a good friend of Durer. Several of his relatives died because of their faith - his sister was buried alive, her husband beheaded. Massys died in Antwerp and, in his honour, asteroid 9569 was named Quentinmatsijs.
