Catalogue Note
Pieter Bartolomeï est né à Saint-Trond, en Belgique. Il fut probablement apprenti chez Francis Stijnen auquel il était apparenté par sa femme, Lucia Bastijns. Lorsqu'à son tour, il se maria, il cousina avec un certain nombre d'autres orfèvres. Il est surtout connu pour sa production d'orfèvrerie sacrée dont plusieurs objets peuvent être admirés dans les églises et au musée de Saint-Trond.
