Flemish painter (1578–1645)
Balthasar Lauwers, known in Italy as Baldassare Lauri or Baldassare Lauro was a Flemish landscape painter who, after initially training in Antwerp, had a successful career in Italy where he worked for an elite clientele. As he was mainly active as a fresco painter in private residences, not many of his works have been preserved.
