Estonian artist Michel Sittow (c. 1469-1525) trained in the tradition of early Netherlandish painting. He worked for many high-profile patrons, including Isabella of Castile in Spain, and specialized in small devotional works and portraits; the portraits, in particular, are artistically sophisticated paintings that have been characterized as among the finest of their time.

Featuring approximately twenty works attributed to Sittow, as well as paintings by his contemporaries, including Hans Memling and Juan de Flandes, this exhibition catalogue provides an opportunity to learn about Sittow's oeuvre and to appreciate it within the cultural context of his homeland as well as the broader milieu of early northern Renaissance art.
