Additional information
Maarten van Heemskerck’s artistic style was profoundly shaped by his extended stay in Italy (1532–36/37), where he drew copies of ancient sculpture and architecture and studied the works of Michelangelo and other significant artists. Upon returning to the Netherlands, Van Heemskerck spread his Italianate manner through the medium of prints and at the same time revolutionized Dutch printmaking by establishing a professional approach to the technique.
