Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAL-MAR
MANDER, CAREL VAN (1548-1606) , Dutch painter, poet and biographer, was born of a noble family at Meulebeke. He studied under Lucas de Heere at
Ghent
 , and in 15681569 under Pieter Vlerick at Kortryck. The next five years he devoted to the writing of religious plays for which he also painted the scenery. Then followed three years in Rome (1574-1577), where he is said to have been the first to discover the catacombs. On his return journey he passed through Vienna, where, together with the sculptor Hans Mont, he made the triumphal
arch
  for the entry of the emperor Rudolph. After many vicissitudes caused by war, loss of fortune and plague, he settled at Haarlem where, in conjunction with
Goltzius
  and Cornelisz, he founded a successful
academy
  of
painting
 . His fame is, however, principally based upon a voluminous biographical
work
  on the paintings of various epochsa book that has become for the northern countries what
Vasari
 's Lives of the Painters became for
Italy
 . It was completed in 1603 and published in 1604, in which year Van Mander removed to
Amsterdam
 , where he died in 16o6.
