16th & 17th century
Caelius Aurelianus was a Greco-Roman physician and theorist of medicine, representative of the Methodist school, and author of treatises on medicine.
He is best known for his translation from Greek into Latin of Soranus of Ephesus' lost treatise On Acute and Chronic Diseases. The bilingual and intercultural nature of the text makes it an invaluable contribution to the study of Greco-Roman medicine.
Louis Jérôme Raussin was a French physician and bibliophile who lived in Reims.
Robert Boyvin was a French illuminator who worked in Rouen between 1480 and 1536.
Robert came from the Boyvin family of booksellers, known since the early 15th century. He was part of a group of illuminators along with Jean Pichord, Jean Serpen, Etienne du Monstier and Nicolas Hisse.
Boyvin produced more than 80 surviving manuscripts, most of which were books of hours, and his style had a great influence on the Rouen workshops. From 1530, Boyvin also made some jewelry for Cardinal Georges d'Amboise.

Otto van Veen was a painter, draughtsman, and humanist active primarily in Antwerp and Brussels in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. He is known for running a large studio in Antwerp, producing several emblem books, and for being, from 1594 or 1595 until 1598, Peter Paul Rubens' teacher. His role as a classically educated humanist artist (a pictor doctus), reflected in the Latin name by which he is often known, Octavius Vaenius, was influential on the young Rubens, who would take on that role himself.
