释义 |
LifeVan den Blocke was born in Königsberg (today Kaliningrad),[3] Ducal Prussia, presumably the oldest of seven children of Dorothea and Willem van den Blocke, a Flemish sculptor and architect who had trained with Cornelis Floris in Antwerp. His brothers Isaak, Jacob and David were painters.[4] In 1584 the family lived in Danzig (Gdańsk), where he was trained as a sculptor in his father's workshop. He moved to the Netherlands for further studies in 1590-95 and became a citizen of Danzig in 1596. In 1597 van den Blocke became a master and established his own workshop in 1598.[2] Van den Blocke died in Danzig in the same year as his father and brother Isaak, likely from an infectious disease. WorkIn 1598-1611 he made a stone altar for the St. John's church and became a municipal architect in 1611. Van den Blocke built the Golden Tenement House in 1609, the Golden Gate (1612-14) and made a front elevation of the Artushof (1616-1617). In 1606-1613 he made elements for the Neptune's well and built the Royal Granary for King Sigismund III Vasa. He is the sculptor of several tombstones and epitaphs in St. Mary's Church.[2] References{{Commons}}1. ^Sometimes also 1571 is mentioned {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Blocke, Abraham van den}}2. ^1 2 Biography at Gdansk.pl 3. ^Biographical details at the Netherlands Institute for Art History {{link language|nl|Middle Dutch}} 4. ^Biographical details of Willem van den Blocke at The Netherlands Institute for Art History {{link language|nl|Middle Dutch}} 4 : 1572 births|1628 deaths|People from Königsberg|People from the Duchy of Prussia |
