Cornelius Arendtz
Cornelius Arendtz is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Finnish Heritage Agency.
Cornelius Arendtz painted portraits in the early 1500s, often stiff and formal like the kings he sat for. He left us a direct look at Gustav Wasa in oil, the Swedish king’s stiff ruff and steady gaze filling the frame. If you’ve ever stood in front of an old royal portrait in a castle, you’ll recognize the style. Tap Gustav Wasa’s portrait to step inside the 1500s court.
