Hendrick Gijsmans
ARTISTHendrik Gijsmans or Egidius Gijsmans was a Flemish painter, draftsman, tapestry designer and mayor. After training in his native Mechelen, he moved to Antwerp where he probably worked in the workshop of Gillis Mostaert.

He later became the mayor of Frankenthal. The artist's work has only recently been rediscovered after he was identified with an anonymous artist referred to as Anonymous Fabriczy of whom a collection of about 50 drawings are held in the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart.
