Who was the patron for "Death and the Miser" by Hieronymus Bosch?

Question

I have got to write a paper on "Death and the Miser" by Hieronymus Bosch but I don't know who was the patron. Can anyone please tell me who commissioned the artwork titled, "Death and the Miser" by Hieronymus Bosch, I mean who was the patron? I don't necessarily need the artist's information but just the patron and who paid for it.

Answer 1

 

I've googled extensively but couldn't find the answer; nor could I find it in my own books.

 

It's possible, though, that it might have been commissioned by Philip the Handsome, Duke of Burgundy, who did order "an altarpiece, 9 feet high and 11 feet wide, depicting scenes of the Last judgment, heaven and hell. This painting has never been found. But the commission makes it clear that Bosch was regarded as a master painter of great respectability and deep religious faith."

 

Bosch was born the duchy of Brabant, which was then the realm of the dukes of Burgundy.

 

So it could have been Philip the Handsome.
