Bartholomäus Bruyn the Younger

Bartholomäus Bruyn the Younger was a German Renaissance painter active in Cologne during the second half of the 16th century, primarily known for his portrait work. He was the son of the distinguished Cologne portraitist Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder, from whom he learned his craft and continued the family workshop tradition. His portraits reflect the Northern Renaissance style, though with less refinement than his father's celebrated works.
