Marmion is mentioned in Amiens in 1449-54; from 1458 he was in Valenciennes; and he recorded in the Tournai Guild in 1468. There are no documented paintings, but the panels of The Soul of Saint Bartin are usually accepted as key works. He appears also to have been a painter of manuscript illuminations
