| Notes: |
"This story originally appeared as "Quentin Matsys; or, The Blacksmith of Antwerp" as a serial in the New World, where the author's name likewise was given as "Fritz." It was begun in Vol. IV, February 26, 1842, and ended March 26 of the same year. Blurbs describe the author of this tale as "An American Writer, †living at Avoncale, near Newark, but his identity is not disclosed. The author is neither John O'Keeffe, Caroline Pichler, nor Pierce Egan, the Younger, although all of them wrote stories with the same title. All four stories are based on the romantic life of the famous Flemish painter, Quentin Matsys (Metsys, Metseys), who was born in Leuven in 1466 and died in Antwerp in 1530. He is said to have been a blacksmith before he became a painter"--Johannsen, A. House of Beadle and Adams and its dime and nickel novels |
