NOTES

This highly fictionalized look at an obscure Dutch artist is meant to be tongue-in-cheek. It creates a loveable character who flip-flops between sin and righteousness. He is an extraordinarily gifted painter, but he paints under protest. Of the few facts actually known about him, one is that as a boy, he almost certainly witnessed the burning of his birthplace, Hertogenbosch, in what is now the Netherlands. One of the other is his marriage to Aleid Goyaerts van den Meerveen. Heironymus Bosch's birth name was Jeroenimus Anthonissen van Aken, we will get to know him as Jeroen. Scott Skipper is a California fiction writer with a broad range of interests, including history, genealogy, travel, science and current events. His wry outlook on life infects his novels with biting sarcasm. Prisoners are never taken. Political correctness is taboo. His work includes historical fiction, alternative history, novelized biography, science fiction and political satire. He is a voracious reader and habitual and highly opinionated reviewer
