The anonymous Master was originally named by Max Friedländer ('Der Meister mit dem Papagei', Phoebus, 1949, II, pp. 49-54) for the slightly idiosyncratic parrots that appear in many of his works. Active in Antwerp, he would appear to have been influenced by the oeuvre of Pieter Coecke van Aelst, with the result that a large number of the works identified by Friedländer as by him had formerly been regarded as by the latter artist. The present work employs, in addition, ideas that derive from the work of Joos van Cleve, who was also active in Antwerp in the early sixteenth century: for example the still life elements on the table in the foreground.
