Beeck, Jan (1),

a Flemish painter, was born at Looz, and was a monk of the Convent of St. Lawrence, near Liege, of which he became the abbot in 1509. He died in 1516. He painted most of the pictures in the church of his convent, and is considered; after the brothers Van Eyck, to be the most eminent among the ancient painters of Liege.
