Excerpt: Bernard van Orley (Brussels, between 1487 and 1491 Brussels, 6 January 1541), also called Barend van Orley, Bernaert van Orley or Barend van Brussel, was a significant Flemish Northern Renaissance painter and draughtsman, and also a leading designer of tapestries and stained glass. He is counted among a group of painters belonging to the Romanism school of painting, who has not been given enough attention by the general public. His family came originally from Luxembourg, descendants from the Seigneurs d'Ourle or d'Orley. His branch of the family then moved to the Duchy of Brabant, where his father Valentin van Orley (ca. 1466-Brussels 1532) was born as an illegitimate child and lost his noble lineage. Bernard and his brother Everard (who would also become a painter) were both born in Brussels. The painted wing panels of the sculpted Saluzzo retable are attributed to Valentin van Orley, describing the Life of St. Joseph (ca. 1510). The retable itself is Gothic in style, but these wing panels already show some characteristic of the Renaissance style (City Museum of Brussels). The panels of the Life of St. Roch in the Saint James' Church, Antwerp have been ascribed to Everard van Orley. In 1512 Bernard van Orley married Agnes Seghers. In 1539, shortly after her death, he married Catherina Helluick. He had in total six children. His four boys followed in the footsteps of their father and also became painters. Bernard van Orley belonged to a large family of painters, starting with his father: 1) Valentin van Orley (14661532) : Philipp van Orley (ca. 1491-1566) (designer of tapestry cartoons); Bernard van Orley (1492. -1542. ), painter and tapestry designer; Everard van Orley (born after 1491), painter; Gomar van Orley, painter (active around 1533). 2) Bernard van Orley : Michael van Orley; Hieronymus I van Orley, painter (active around 1567-1602); Giles van Orley, painter (ca. 1535-1553) 3) Giles van Orley (ca. 1535-1553) : Hieronymus II van Orley (painter and decorator
