Bosche (Or Bos), Jerome

a Dutch painter and engraver, was born at Bois-le-Duc about 1470. One of his best pictures represents Our Saviour delivering the Ancient Patriarchs from hell. He painted several other works of a serious nature, among which were Christ bearing the Cross, and the Flight into Egypt in the Church of Bois-le-Duc. The following are some of his principal works: The Temptation of St. Anthony (dated 1522); The Last Judgment — Christ appears in the air, seated on a rainbow, and on each side of him are two angels, sounding trumpets, with labels bearing this inscription, "Hic est dies quem fuit; surgite mortui, venite ad judicium;" The Baptism of Christ by St. John. He died in 1530.
