Joachim Patinir (Dinan, Namur, Belgium, ca. 1480 – Antwerp, 1524), was a Flemish Northern Renaissance landscape painter and draftsman. He became influenced by the Antwerp School of the Dutch Renaissance painter Gerard David. Patinit is considered the first Western artist known to have specialized in landscape painting; a pioneer in this genre, however his landscapes are not a separate subject but supported by religious themes.
Patinir spent his short career in Antwerp.
