""Here we meet Hans Memling and his art fully within the world that made them: the affluent, highly cosmopolitan Bruges of the later fifteenth century. Mitzi Kirkland-Ives has written a vivid, deeply informed account of the strategies, striving and acumen – of artist and patrons alike – that enabled an immigrant painter to build a sterling career serving eager clients from across Europe."" - Alfred Acres, Wright Family Term Professor of Art History, Georgetown University, and author of Jan van Eyck within His Art ""Hans Memling and the Merchants provides a fascinating account of the day-to-day life of a fifteenth-century artist working in one of the most economically vibrant cities in Europe. Based on meticulous archival research, Mitzi Kirkland-Ives lays out the organization of a major painting workshop, reveals the economic routes that brought artists’ materials to the city and places art into the context of the lives of the many businessmen who formed the bulk of Memling’s patronage. Detailed and accessible, this book provides a perfect companion for students interested in both the means of production and the meanings behind early Netherlandish paintings."" - Susan Maxwell, Professor of Art History, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh
