Johannes op het eiland Patmos

Jan Wellens de Cock was a Netherlandish painter active in the early sixteenth century, likely based in Antwerp during the period of Flemish panel painting's international ascendancy. Working primarily in oil on wood panel, he produced religious compositions and portraits that reflect the formal conventions and material refinement of Northern Renaissance practice. Little remains of a documented body of work, and his artistic identity remains partially reconstructed through archival records and stylistic analysis rather than secure attributions.
