His tapestries, often commissioned by nobles and royal courts, are true testaments to the artist's technical mastery and the cultural prosperity of Flanders.<br \/>\nThe artist, skilled in representing landscapes, mythological scenes (as an example of the lot we now bring to auction), and portraits, gave his tapestries a singular narrative opulence. And the use of vibrant colors, combined with meticulous execution, gave his works a captivating vivacity.<br \/>\nLodewijk van Schoor's legacy transcended his time and ended up influencing subsequent generations of textile artists."}],"tags":"Textiles","gallery":[{"image":{"ID":294375,"id":294375,"title":"136_829","filename":"829.jpg","filesize":26255426,"url":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","link":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/lot\/tapecaria-flamenga-deusa-atena-1800012133\/136_829\/","alt":"","author":"44","description":"","caption":"","name":"136_829","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":291901,"date":"2023-12-09 04:57:27","modified":"2023-12-09 04:57:29","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":5445,"height":6936,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","medium-width":236,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":978,"large":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","large-width":804,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","1536x1536-width":1206,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","2048x2048-width":1608,"2048x2048-height":2048,"v_medium":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829-640x815.jpg","v_medium-width":640,"v_medium-height":815,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":236,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":300,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":314,"gform-image-choice-md-height":400,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/829.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":471,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":600}},"is_video":false,"video_source":"","video_id":"","use_video_thumbnail":true}],"auction_session":"3"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lot\/291902","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lot"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/lot"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/294375"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=291902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=291902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
