## Commentary

Marinus van Reymerswaele, a Calvinist from Zeeland, was studying in Antwerp at the time when Quentin Massys was the undisputed leader of the city&#39;s painters. In his Tax Collectors, Van Reymerswaele - realist, mannerist and even expressionist - carried on the tradition of Massys&#39; genre works in a picturesque, precious and almost caricature fashion.
