Meynnart Wewyck or Maynard Vewicke was a Netherlandish painter,active ca. 1502–1525 in England. Wewyck was employed as an artist at the court of Henry VII of England and,after his death,by his son Henry VIII. He also spent a brief period at the court of James IV of Scotland. Surviving documentation associates Wewyck with portraits of several members of the royal family,and with drawings for the tomb of Lady Margaret Beaufort,mother of Henry VII,at Westminster Abbey. New research published in 2019 has identified a portrait of Lady Margaret Beaufort in the Master's Lodge at St John's College,Cambridge as by Wewyck,and also attributes a painting of Henry VII at the Society of Antiquaries of London to his hand. In follow-on work,a group of researchers suggests that four surviving portraits of Henry VIII and two of his mother,Elizabeth of York,should also be attributed to Wewyck.
