(1) Conrad de Vulcop

( fl 1446–59). The earliest reference to him is as a painter in the service of King Charles VII of France in 1446. Between 1448 and 1459 he is mentioned with the official title ‘painter to the King’. He appears to have collaborated closely with his brother (2) Henri de Vulcop, since in 1454 he provided gold and colours to enable Henri to carry out his work. No surviving work can be associated with him. He was not among the painters responsible for the decorations for the obsequies of Charles VII in 1461.

Part of the Vulcop, de family
