Jan Provoost, or Jan Provost (1462/65 – 1529),

was a Belgian painter born in Mons. The styles of Gerard David and Hans Memling can be detected in Provoost's religious paintings.  He met Albrecht Dürer in Antwerp in 1520, and a Dürer portrait drawing at the National Gallery, London, is conjectured to be of Provost. He married the widow of the miniaturist and painter Simon Marmion. He died in Bruges, in January 1529.
