_Bernard van Orley_ (Flemish: about 1490-1542).

This painter, who studied in Raphael's school, was a designer
for tapestry (the staple industry of Brussels in his time) and
stained glass, as well as what is now exclusively called an
artist, and had all a designer's care for little things. He
superintended the manufacture of the tapestries of the Vatican
made from Raphael's cartoons, and there are some tapestries by
him in the great hall at Hampton Court.
Notice the prettily designed cup in ivory and gold--symbolical of the
box of precious ointment offered by the Magdalen to her Lord. For the
subject see under last picture.
