Master of the Embroidered Foliage (active 1480 – 1510) was a Netherlandish painter or a group of painters who worked out of Bruges and Brussels. In 1926 the German art historian Max Jakob Friedländer attributed a group of paintings of the Virgin and Child in a landscape in identical poses to Master of the Embroidered Foliage. The foliage painted in these works was likened by Friedländer to the repeated pattern of stitches in embroidery thus the unusual name for the artist.
