About Thomas Quellinus
- Thomas Quellinus (March 1661 – September 1709), also known, especially in Denmark, as Thomas Qvellinus, was a Flemish baroque sculptor.
- He was born in Antwerp but worked mainly in Copenhagen, Denmark.
- He is especially known for the production of grandiose and sumptuous memorial chapels, sepulchral monuments and epitaphs, which can be found in churches throughout Denmark and northern Germany's Schleswig-Holstein area.
- His chapels and monuments are dramatically composed, executed in rare, differently coloured types of marble and framed by monumental architectural components. He was a member of the well-known Quellinus family of artists from 17th century Antwerp, major center of artistic life then known as "the Florence of the North".
