- Short Description
- "Hubert van den Eynde (October 11, 1593 – September 18, 1662) was a Flemish sculptor. Van den Eynde became a master of the Guild of Saint Luke in 1620. He was the first prominent sculptor of the Van den Eynde family of artists and entrepreneurs. He trained with an unknown master and taught Sebastiaen van den Eynde, son of his brother Cornelis; his other nephew Sebastian de Neve, and his own son Norbert van den Eynde. In the early 17th century, Van den Eynde was among the leading Flemish artists who rejected contrived Mannerist formulae in favour of greater verisimilitude.
Among his surviving works are the monumental Waterpoort in Antwerp; a high altar in black and white marble and alabaster (flanked by two paintings by Anthony van Dyck) in the Church of Our Lady of Dendermonde; and the Rubenesque marble statues of Gideon and Joshua in the Antwerp Cathedral." - (en.wikipedia.org 12.08.2021)
