, Nuño (active 1450-71). Portuguese painter, recorded in 1463
as court painter to Alfonso V (1437-81). No works certainly by his hand survive,
but there is a strong circumstantial evidence that he was responsible
for the St Vincent polyptych (Lisbon Museum, c.1460-70),
the outstanding Portuguese painting of the 15th century.
The style is rather dry, but powerfully realistic, and the polyptych
contains a superb gallery of highly individualized portraits of members of the court,
including a presumed self-portrait. There are affinities with contemporary Burgundian and Flemish art,
especially the work of Bouts.

Nuno Gonçalves
is one of the 33 figures on the Padrão dos Descobrimentos in Lisbon.

Nuno Gonçalves is the third lowest figure at the right, west side of the monument.
