Lieven van Lathem was a Flemish painter and illuminator active in the late 15th century. He was born in the town of Lathem, near Ghent, in the county of Flanders (now part of Belgium). He is best known for his illuminated manuscripts, which were highly prized by the nobility and wealthy patrons of his time. Van Lathem worked for several prominent patrons, including the Duke of Burgundy, Philip the Good, and his son Charles the Bold. He also worked for the court of King Louis XI of France. His most famous work is the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, a lavishly illustrated book of hours that he collaborated on with the Limbourg brothers. Van Lathem's style is characterised by intricate detail and vivid colours. He was able to create realistic depictions of landscapes, animals and people. His illuminations often depicted scenes from everyday life, such as peasants working in the fields or hunters hunting game. Van Lathem died in Brussels in 1493, leaving behind a legacy of beautiful illuminated manuscripts that are still admired and studied today.
