Biography
Jacques Coene (active late 1380s - 1411) was a Flemish painter, illustrator, and architect. He worked in Belgium, France, and Italy. In 1399, he worked in the building of Milan Cathedral. He apparently had commissions from John, Duke of Berry and Philip the Bold.
Art historians sometimes attribute the Book of Hours created by the Boucicaut Master to him, however,
The tentative identification of the Boucicaut Master with Jacques Coene from Bruges is now generally disregarded, as recent discoveries show that Coene is documented in Paris from the late 1380s.
