Jacques DaliweJacques Daliwe was a Franco-Flemish painter active between 1380 and 1416.[1] His only known work is a book of drawings on wood, now kept in the Berlin State Library, with studies of facial expressions and some more complete Biblical scenes (including an Annunciation, a Crowning of Mary, and a Sorrows of Christ).[1][2] He is supposed to have worked at the court of the Duke of Berry, and some of his drawings reuse compositions by the Limbourg brothers.[3] However, while the figures are depicted almost exactly in detail as in the original works, the style in Daliwe's miniatures is completely different: while the Limbourgs depict elegant, refined persons without authentic emotions, Daliwe's rendition is full of life and movement and the facial features are highly personalized.[4] Notes
