It appears likely that he was from [[Ghent]] and not from [[Bruges]], his name notwithstanding. He copied the style of [[Hugo van der Goes]], and his name is derived from a [[diptych]] he painted for Christian de Hondt, dated to 1499 and preserved in [[Antwerp]], in the [[Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp|Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten]]; in this painting he copies the work of [[Jan van Eyck]]. His output also includes a ''Madonna and Child with Four Saints'', now in [[Richmond, Virginia]]; a ''[[Coronation of the Virgin]]'' in the [[Royal Collection]]; a [[diptych]] of the ''[[Annunciation]]'' in [[Berlin]]; and a ''Holy Family with Angels'' in Antwerp.
