Philip bought six Bosches from the widow and son of Felipe de Guevara, a courtier of Emperor Charles and the author of ‘Communtarias de la Pintura’ The Epiphany Triptych, Bosch’s masterpiece, in the opinion of Max J. Friedländer, was confiscated by Philip from a certain rebellious Netherlandish burgher. But on the debit side, at least four Bosches are thought to have been lost when the Prado Palace burned in 1604, and others almost certainly were burned in the Alcazar fire in 1734.

This material has been amplified in recent years and has been recently reported by Roger Marijnissen. Hieronymus’ father, three uncles, and a brother were all listed in the family records as being painters, and his nephew was a woodcarver.
