Theodor Evertz (fl. c. 1554) was a Franco-Flemish composer from the Renaissance.

Life and work

Little is known about Evertz.

Three of his Dutch songs are preserved in the anthology of Dutch songs, Dat ierste boeck vanden nieuwe Duijtsche liedekens, published by Jacob Bathen in Maastricht in 1554:

No complete set of parts of Jacob Bathen's anthology has yet been retrieved (the soprano voice is missing), but one of the songs for four voices has been published in Petrus Phalesius's Een Duijtsch musijck boeck in 1572, of which at least one complete copy has survived.

<i>Schilder-boeck</i> Book by Karel van Mander

Het Schilder-Boeck or Schilderboek is a book written by the Flemish writer and painter Karel van Mander first published in 1604 in Haarlem in the Dutch Republic, where van Mander resided. The book is written in 17th-century Dutch and its title is commonly translated into English as 'The Book of Painters' or 'The Book of Painting' and sometimes as 'The Book on Picturing'. Het Schilder-Boeck consists of six parts and is considered one of the principal sources on the history of art and art theory in the 15th and 16th century Low Countries. The book was very well received and sold well. Karel van Mander died two years after its publication. A second posthumous edition, which included a brief, anonymous biography of van Mander was published in 1618. This second edition was translated by Hessel Miedema into English and published in 1994-1997 together with a facsimile of the original and five volumes of notes on the text.
