Gerard Thomas - The Sculptors Studio.

 The Sculptors Studio.

Gerard Thomas (1663 - 1721).

Apprnticed to Godfried Maes
Master of Guild of St Luke, Antwerp 1688 - 89.

Compatriot of Balthasar van den Bosch (see my previous post)..

Some images and a few notes.

Another post in the occasional series of images of  sculpture depicted in various mediums.

These images are of great interest from the point of view of the sculptures depicted. Although Flemish they show the works of sculptors of the period and with diligence it should be possible to work out the source of the sculpture and the authors.

This post is of necessity rather slim in content, but is of a subject worth investigating in the future.
